Verdict
Iron Lad sets the standard of those who have raced and although he is no world-beater, he is still open to plenty of improvement. He came up against a useful sort last time and the experience will have benefited him greatly. Black Pepper and Queen Of Night could be the pick of the newcomers, whilst a move for Silver Coin would be interesting.
