Verdict
Eightfold finished third behind stablemate Bronterre at Salisbury on his debut. He could come out best of those with experience as Sandbetweenourtoes was a disappointing favourite last time after making a promising debut over 6f on the Rowley course here. Better is expected from Rock Of Monet, but one of the newcomers may be up to landing this. Ashkan and Ruby Night are worth noting along with the fillies Valiant Runner and Thewinningmachine, but SIGNOR SASSI cost 140,000gns, is a half-brother to a Listed winner and boasts an entry in next month's Gimcrack. Roger Varian's colt gets the nod to score at the first time of asking.
