    Verdict

    A decent looking quartet go to post for this novice stakes with all the field having shown promise but with Equitant the only winner in the field. He has to concede weight here to all of his rivals and that may just tip the scales in favour of HUMBLE GRATITUDE who has two good runs under his belt with the second Haydock run looking particularly good. Poet's Pride is another improver and he's preferred to Up Sticks And Go for the minor placing.
