        Verdict

        Goose Green can make experience count against Dimbola, Fool Me and Wrecking Crew. Goose Green was fancied to land a blow against the odds-on Zafonical Storm on his Folkestone debut nine days ago, but was in truth a bit disappointing in only finishing third of of the four runners. The son of Invincible Spirit has continued to work well at home since then though, and hopes are high that he can make amends here. His main target is the ¿250,000 Tattersalls October Auction Stakes at Newmarket, and he will have to impress in the summer to line up there. Barry Hills seems to have his team well forward, so Dimboola can be expected to give a good account. Bred by Guy Reed, he will come into his own over further eventually, but may be sharp enough to take a hand. Fool Me hails from a stable that had plenty of juvenile success last season, as does Wrecking Crew who did not get the best of runs during his Lingfield debut three weeks ago. Market support is always important in these type of affairs, but we shall side with Goose Green to keep up Mick Channon's good start.
