        Verdict

        Rock Canyon wasn't beaten far when fourth over today's trip at Sandown, but still gave the impression a longer distance would suit. Repeater was beaten over seven lengths despite finishing third on his debut at Leicester though his yard have won this a couple of times recently and he's expected to confirm running with Juno The Muffinman. Moon Trip has shown little to recommend him so far so the vote goes to the newcomer GHOSTWRITING, who is a half-brother to a Grade 3 winner in America and won't have to be anything special to take this on his debut.
