        Verdict

        This opener will not take much winning for Fly Time with Bateleur and Neops both worth noting. The selection has at least got some form figures to his name having finished second on two occasions. His most recent effort was eye catching when finishing second over course and distance behind River Rosie. If able to repeat that run he should take some beating. Bateleur was beaten a fair way on his debut at Windsor but has to be open to improvement. He was seven lengths adrift of the winner that day and if able to capitalize on the experience then he has a chance. The same can be said to Neops who was beaten six lengths on his debut at Windsor when finishing tenth of fifteen. But for the winner we return to Fly Time.
