Verdict
Abadejo and REDVERS are the only two with an official rating and the latter has 12lb in hand on that score. Ralph Beckett's charge finished second to a Sir Michael Stoute-trained hotpot at Pontefract on last month's return and can open his account in this company. Both Circuitous and Dickie's Lad showed promise on their respective debuts and look the chief dangers with improvement likely, while the newcomer Crabbies Ginger is worth a second glance in the betting as he's a half-brother to three juvenile winners.
