Verdict

Weet Yer Tern holds every chance on the evidence of his two-length fourth behind Alvarinho Lady at Nottingham last month but the Paul Blockley stable has been quiet for some time now and preference is for Im Spartacus, who gets the verdict over Leonalto. The last mentioned has had the benefit of two runs already but is bred to appreciate cut in the ground and may find today's conditions too fast. Bill Turner's juveniles are always worth a second look and the likelihood is that Dustini will step up on his debut effort. Majestical has a lot to do if he is to trouble the judge in a race where the vote goes to Im Spartacus. Ian Wood's colt stepped up markedly on his debut effort when staying on strongly to finish second behind Treat Me Wild at Bath last time and a reproduction of that effort may suffice.
