    Verdict

    HAPAP should settle better today with last month’s debut at Sandown under his belt. This doesn’t look a strong maiden and the Hannon colt gets the vote ahead of the other likely improvers Aegis Power and Abbado with preference for the latter of that pair. War Brave is the most exposed but looks no nearer winning.
