      Verdict

      BUCKSHAW VILLAGE finished strongly to take second over a slightly shorter trip at York. Richard Fahey’s colt can go one better in this at the main expense of Captain's Bar. The latter is preferred to both Darbucks and City Vaults on his efforts at Ascot and Newmarket while the newcomer Speranzoso cost £100,000 at the Doncaster Breeze Up in May and is worth a second glance.
