    Verdict

    A mile and a half on soft ground looks ideal for AEGEAN DESTINY these days judged by the way he obliged under such conditions at Newcastle in September. He followed up with a solid effort at Haydock and looks the one to beat despite being 9lb higher than when scoring at Gosforth Park. Passion Play looks very interesting as he remains opn to further improvement but it's probably best to adopt a watching brief on this first run on turf. Sistine has moved from James Given to the Henderson yard, presumably with a hurdling campaign in mind, but he's not to be ruled out on the back of just four runs to date. Rock Peak, much-improved when scoring over two miles last time, drops back in trip, but the Paul Green pair of Dubara Reef and C P Joe are worth a second look.
