Verdict

This looks tricky and the betting may give some clues. Al Mansor, Jupiter Light and Adamant are newcomers to note but several of these have already posted promising efforts including the latter’s stablemate ELUCIDATION. He was placed at Newmarket on his recent debut and is just preferred to Zefferino, who also ran well at HQ when runner-up on her introduction. Naval Warfare was caught close home attempting to make all at Ffos Las on his latest start and it would be no surprise if both Farook and Presence Process showed a big improvement today.
