        Verdict

        Richard Hannon’s two-year-olds boast a 50 per cent strike-rate here and RIFFAA WONDER (NAP) was the only one backed against favourite and eventual winner Alkumait. Little went right that day for the Kodiac colt but he wasn’t given a hard time in the closing stages and will know more today. Anatiya is a half-sister to a winner in France and may be the danger with the others with experience requiring improvement to get off the mark. The pick of those may be Vivacious Boy, who was too green to do himself justice at Redcar.
