In depth

Verdict

Now Children showed promise on his debut when second at Carlisle but that was over 6f. Breeding suggests he will stay this extra distance but SOFIA’S ROCK is preferred. Mark Johnston’s colt found only one too good over today’s trip at Haydock on his latest start and should make a bold bid with any further progress. Jock Talk has plenty to find and the newcomer Rock N Rolla is preferred to stablemate Euro Nightmare and fellow newcomer Master Degree.
