In depth

Verdict

Rievaulx Valentino can account for Liberty Ship and Abbey Express. The selection does not look to be the most willing of partners but when asked for his effort, he looks to have a modicum of ability and this might be enough to take this opportunity. Liberty Ship is similarly not without quirks. Modestly away on two starts, he has given a good account of himself when getting into gear. Abbey Express failed to build upon an eyecatching debut. He does have reasonable early pace. Tommy Tush is related to winners over further while Piccolo Pete is conversely bred for speed. The Magic Blanket put up an improved effort on his latest start while Varinia was well held on a foray into handicap company. Maid Bloom does not look one of the best of Bryan Smart's juvenile battalion. Rievaulx Valentino has had plenty of chances but he does not look totally ungenuine and is offered a final drink in the last chance saloon.
