Verdict

Troon has switched stables since making a winning debut at Kempton in October and also has a penalty to shoulder. Fleet Admiral has a nice pedigree and comes with a 260,000gns price tag so it would be no surprise to see the No Nay Never colt in the thick of the action. Kokomo was second over track and trip four weeks ago, despite running green, but Roger Varian will fancy his chances of winning both divisions of this novice stakes as EQUATORIAL would surely have landed the spoils at Doncaster last month had he not missed the break and then run green. Crack Shot looks the pick of Ed Walker’s two newcomers.
