Verdict

Richard Hannon's stable took this last year and have another live candidate this time around in North Star Boy, who cost 57,000gns as a yearling. Main Focus is a full brother to all-weather winner Signal Fire but may find this trip on the sharp side on this track. Noor Zabeel is by Elusive Quality out of a Storm Cat mare so should have plenty of speed but we like the look of Jeremy Noseda's Holy Roman Emperor colt ROMAN SOLDIER, who can make a winning debut providing his wide draw doesn't prove too much of a disadvantage.
