Verdict
GETGO (NAP) was clear of the rest including Sayif Magic when runner-up at Beverley last time. Rated 75, he should have the measure of Wolverhampton third All About The Pace. Otomo may prove a bigger threat having been narrowly beaten over track and trip on his latest start and Silvestre De Sousa takes over the reins today. Wouldntitbelovely is a likely improver and Champagne Reign, a half-sister to several winners, makes most appeal of the newcomers.
