Verdict

VERONA OPERA will likely be a very short price for this as she had Verni and Master Moon well behind when second to Another Bill at Ayr and the winner has followed up since under a penalty. Both Plum Tree and Rocklim were soon left behind on their respective debuts at Sedgefield and Newcastle but newcomer Dibble Bridge is a half-brother to a Flat winner so could have a future.
