In depth
Verdict
Dr Dalwhinny didn't show much on debut but the Dr Fong gelding may improve for that outing. However, the winning appearance of HIGH STRATOS first time up was replete with promise as he looked both green and far from straightforward in fending of the well-touted My Wigwam Or Yours with a decent field behind. He should be more streetwise as a result of that run and can follow up . Another Hero is interesting from the O'Neill yard, likewise Wenlocks Boxer, a Kayf Tara newcomer from the Kim Bailey team which remains in cracking form and enjoys a 19% strike rate in these contests over the last five years.
