        Verdict

        There are some interesting juveniles on debut here with the eye naturally drawn to Match Maker. Simon Crisford's colt is a son of Declaration Of War and Ryan Moore is a rare booking for the Newmarket handler. The market should tell us more, as should be the case with the likes of Moakkad, Rhosneigr and Hey Gaman. However, WESTERLAND, a son of Frankel, revealed plenty of talent on debut when runner-up at Newbury and will have benefited considerably from that initial outing. He looks the way to go here, with George, a good third in that Newbury contest, also respected. Admiral Spice was well supported on his Pontefract debut but was disappointing and the likelihood is that he is better than that effort suggested.
