Verdict

Valley Breeze is the obvious one as he will be expected to improve on a debut run of moderate promise hailing from the yard of the champion trainer. Satoshi and Gone Dancin were also not without promise first time up but it would be no surprise if a newcomer provided the solution here. Exit Poll and Jerandme represent yards that do well in such contests and the market should reflect their claims but a very speculative choice is KHANISARI. He has an attractive Flat pedigree and has joined Ellmarie Holden after failing to make the track for the Halford stable. Ronnoco is also worthy of a second look.
