      Verdict

      Half of this field are seeing a racecourse for the first time. Three Times A Lord is a half-brother to a winning miler and wouldn't need to be anything special to make a successful start to his career, though his yard isn't noted for first-time winners. Vale Of Iron finished three-quarter-of-a-length ahead of VIRTUAL REALITY at Chelmsford 12 days ago but the latter missed the break that day and probably has a bit more scope. Philip McBride's charge can turn the tables and land this.
