In depth
Verdict
MARCELO’S WAY beat a subsequent winner when finding only one too good at Chelmsford and Mark Johnston’s colt can open his account with any further progress. Greenscape is not out of this either having shown some promise over track and trip on her debut while both Romantic Memories and Tropical Talent posted better efforts in tougher contests last time. Nicholas George is related to several winners while Fifteenthamendment is a half-brother to three winners and that pair make most appeal of the newcomers.
