Verdict

CONTACT never figured when sent over to Ireland for a valuable sales race at the Curragh but had earlier placed in novice company at Ripon. He should have the measure of Whatzupwithme though the latter is a likely improver with jockey bookings suggesting he’s preferred to stablemate Headingley. The latter is related to a couple of winners with Berry Edge making more appeal than Norman Kindu of the other newcomers.
