        Verdict

        CAN YOU CONGA stands out in this company. He went close to catching the progressive Riskit For A Biscuit at Lingfield on his debut when seven lengths clear of a subsequent winner and Kevin Ryan's colt can open his account. Lexington Place was well beaten at Musselburgh on his return but Bitusa ran well over 7f here back in October. Compton Heights looks best of Jim Goldie's newcomers with Graham Lee on board while both Burren View Lady and Trixie Malone are others to note on their debuts.
