        Verdict

        This looks a very competitive affair but, of the four previous winners, Godolphin’s Siskany is the only one to have previously raced on Turf. Beating All was impressive when making a winning debut at Kempton, however, and should give a good account under Hollie Doyle. His yard also run the twice-raced Zikany but it’s another maiden, EAGLE TERRACE, who makes most appeal. Out of a Grade 3 winner in the States, the Gleneagles gelding got tired on heavy going at Newbury in October but an earlier second at Haydock was full of promise.
