Verdict

A non-runner at Sandown yesterday, this looks an easier opportunity for SPLASH AROUND. He finished a modest fifth at Newmarket on his recent debut but a winner has already come out of the race and Ryan Moore takes over the reins for this. None of the opposition threatened on their respective debuts with Romanor and Merlin stepping up in distance today and Godolphin’s Pioneering another likely improver. Rosarno is related to a host of winners and preferred to Second Page of the newcomers.
