    Verdict

    The betting suggested Knebworth would go close over track and trip on his debut and he duly returned an easy winner. He should go close again given Edgar Linton was still well beaten when third at Doncaster and Rocking Ends failed to figure at the same track but AMARETTI VIRGINIA can take advantage of the weight concession. A half-sister to Group 1 winner Ebro River, the Hannon newcomer was purchased for 300,000gns at last month’s Craven Breeze-Up and may prove good enough at the first time of asking.
