      Verdict

      VALKO showed the benefit of his opening run at Haydock when just failing to make all at Doncaster where he only faded close home over that 7f trip. He should be suited by dropping back and gets the vote. Highly Sprung has had his chances and may have to wait for a nursery but Early Bird showed good pace on her debut at Thirsk and will have come on nicely for the experience. Learning Curve is a very speedily-bred son of Monsieur Bond who is one to keep an eye on in the betting.
