Verdict

HIGHWAY COMPANION will be a short price in this as he made a previous winner work hard for victory at Haydock on his debut under Rules. Enlighten has shown ability in all three starts but doesn’t have the scope of the selection. Master Newton was well beaten at Newcastle but newcomer Wild Gypsy Boy is Flat-bred, though only cost £7,000.
