Verdict
Sliding Doors was only beaten a short-head on his debut at Musselburgh. Puppet Warrior has found only one too good in both starts to date and is hoping to make it third-time lucky but Gary Moore’s newcomer LARRY could be worth a market check. He’s by Midnight Legend and a half-brother to the useful mare Gaspara among others. Golden Sunrise sports colours that will be familiar to NH fans but he doesn’t have an eye-catching pedigree.
