In depth
Verdict
Richard Hannon has enjoyed a particularly fine season and can add to the tally with Unicorn Reward who gets the TEAMtalk nod over some modest rivals. The selection is progressing with experience and put up his best performance last time when a close third over 7f on the all-weather late last month. The pacey son of Turtle Island will relish both trip and ground conditions and will take plenty of pegging back. Arabian Knight has shown some ability and should apprteciate the step up in trip while Luca Cumani's newcomer, Figliolo, would not need to be anything out of the ordinary to figure and should be noted in the market.
