In depth
Verdict
Signcastle City debuted at Newmarket but was due to race at Salisbury yesterday. The others with experience have posted only moderate efforts so far and this can go to a newcomer. Appointed One is the first foal of a winner on the all-weather but MATCHING SAX can include a Group 3 winner among seven winning relatives and gets the speculative vote. Coloane and Tranquillity are also related to several winners while Miyagi is a half-brother to a couple of winning sprinters.
