Verdict
Not a lot to go on here but Dark Ruby only found one too good at Fontwell in September, albeit in a small field. Absolution should have learned a little from his Bangor debut while the booking of Jamie Moore for Richard Rowe's mare Brooklands B catches the eye. Stays All Night could be another newcomer to note but we like the look of LOST TWO STARS, who made up ground late on her introduction at Wincanton in March and is open to further improvement.
