    In depth

    Verdict

    Destrier never figured on last month’s debut at Kempton and finished tailed off but he is surely better than that. ATOMIC RUMBLE, a son of leading NH sire Oscar, ran in snatches on his first start at Ffos Las but was staying on once the penny dropped and should know more today. Goldanbleu is from jumping stock but was a cheap buy and probably best watched and the other two have shown little so far.
