Verdict
JUDICIAL would have entered many a notebook as a surefire maiden winner on the strength of his debut second to the talented Strath Burn at Newbury, and even more so when his conqueror went on to finish a close second to Kool Company in the Prix Robert Papin. The selection was beaten a comfortable three lengths but was no less than five lengths clear of his nearest pursuer back in third. Roger Charlton appears to have identified a gilt-edged opportunity and he should go one better before stepping up in grade. Henley has shaped well on both starts for a yard currently going well and his York third behind Maljaa affords him main danger status. Hatchet Harry, a fair Newmarket fourth on debut, is next best.
