        In depth

        Verdict

        MOJANDIL finished a creditable third at Chepstow on his debut having run green in the early stages and normal progress should see Brian Meehan’s charge go close here. Dewey Road was no match for the winner when runner-up over 5f at Thirsk but can figure over this extra distance while Royal Musketeer and Captain Bonny look other likely improvers. Zartaj is the first foal of a winning sprinter in North America and fellow newcomer Faustus has plenty of speed in his pedigree.
