Verdict

MICHAELA’S BOY has faced a couple of tough tasks since making a winning debut at Windsor including a fourth in Listed company here last time. He gets another chance with an apprentice’s allowance negating a big chunk of today’s penalty. Presidential Dance represents last year’s winning yard and is a likely improver while a couple of the newcomers are worth noting. Midday Martini is a sister to a winner and a half-sister to three winning sprinters while Time Off can include a Listed winner among five winning relatives.
