Verdict
None of these have raced in soft going before but HEXAGON gets closer with every start and should be thereabouts at the finish if handling the surface having placed over today’s trip at Salisbury last time. Ventura Bounty showed some promise on his debut when runner-up over 6f at Nottingham and is preferred to stable companion Jack Ruby and course and distance third Arabian Moon, who was still beaten a long way. Stop Going On is a half-sister to a couple of winners and wouldn’t need to be anything special to figure on her debut.
