    Verdict

    It's a surprise to see General Potempkin in a seller having finished second at Brighton on her debut and PICKS PINTA looks a safer bet. Patrick Morris' charge is clear at the weights as he drops in class after a fourth on the all-weather and should have the measure of Je T'aime Encore. The latter is in turn is favourably treated with both Tell Me Another and Edge.
