Verdict

Moontime won a soft-ground maiden on the Flat as a two-year-old but disappointed last year. Perhaps hurdles will rekindle his enthusiasm and this isn't a great contest but SACRED SQUARE probably deserves a change of luck having been placed in four of his five runs so far over timber. Nordical and Native Display have scope for improvement and Createur has shown some ability and would enter calculations if the ground turned soft.
