In depth

Verdict

It will be intriguing to see the level of market support for the Haggas newcomer, Naqeeb, a son of Nathaniel, whilst fellow newcomer Mordor also takes the eye with Oisin Murphy booked by David Simcock. The overall level of the contest looks modest, so both are taken very seriously, but PROSECCO (NAP) is nevertheless the preference. The Gleneagles filly receives the 5lb sex allowance from the boys and looked one to keep a careful eye on this season when coming home fourth in what looked an interesting maiden at the final Yarmouth meeting last season. Improvement looks assured and she gets the nod over a trip which should suit. Limerick Bound has each-way claims.
