      Verdict

      Star Of Rohm sets the standard though it's not a very high one and either Green Monkey or The Dark Wizard may improve past him. The remaining pair with experience make no appeal but Dropping Zone has possibilities as he's a half-brother to Group 3 winner Distinctive. Fellow newcomer DUKE COSIMO cost 130,000gns and is a brother to winning stablemate Duke Of Firenze. Sir Michael Stoute's charge gets the vote to make a winning debut in this company.
