      Verdict

      Handytalk had more than three lengths to spare overt Arlecchino's Rock at Windsor and the latter may not be able to turn that form around despite being 4lb better off. Buratino showed excellent speed to make all at Chelmsford and is open to further improvement but GIFTED MASTER should take all the beating. He wasn't the best away at Newmarket on debut but showed a terrific turn of foot in the closing stages to score and he already has some fancy entries. Log Out Island is from the yard that won this in 2013 and the fact that he's starting out at this level suggests he must have been showing plenty at home.
