      Verdict

      Some of the big sales races later in the season are the targets for all four contenders. However, Don't Tell Sue, who is related to former high-class sprinter Pipalong, edges preference for now. Zato hails from a yard that have to be respected with their newcomers and, considering Mick Channon's luck in the sales races last term, this son of Zafonic looks an ideal type to bear in mind for future references. Caan is probably Richard Hannon's first string judging by jockey bookings, but the son of Averti looks set to come into his own over further and he may be best left alone for now. Ocean Pride is by high-class sprinter Lend A Hand, but he is out of an In The Wings mare and may also need a sterner test. Therefore, with all things considered, we return to Don't Tell Sue as our idea of the winner, as the most appealing all-round profile with the limited evidence available at this stage.
