In depth

Verdict

Distant Noble gets the confident vote in the seller with Redbackcappuchino and Secret Meaning rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair ninth behind Eternal Luck on his debut and he is the type that is sure to improve. The drop in grade is also in his favour and he looks a solid bet. Redbackcappuchino rates the main danger on his latest third behind Pearo in similar grade but his best form is with more cut in the ground and he is taken on with this in mind. Secret Meaning has had plenty of chances in similar grade but he will need to improve in first-time cheekpieces if he is to score. Fraamington is from a shrewd yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market but he is bred to come into his own over a longer trip and for the winner we will return to Distant Noble.
