In depth
Verdict
KAPITALISTE has taken a liking to Newton Abbot and the application of the visor appears to have made plenty of difference to the fortunes of Alex Dunn’s six-year-old. Lonimoss Bareliere remains a maiden under both codes but was only a whisker away at Sedgefield last month. Little Jessture has been kept away from the winter ground and she went into many notebooks when second over course-and-distance last month while Agent Saonois ran respectably on his reappearance at Worcester.
