Verdict

Roger Charlton looks to have found a decent opportunity for Donizetti to open his account and he gets the TEAMtalk vote to do so. A promising fourth behind John Gosden's Marching Band at Newbury on his debut, the son of Deputy Minister is entitled to improve for that (the stable's youngsters normally get better with experience) and he should be a tough one to beat. Jumhoor should be all the better for his debut effort at Ripon in June but may need this after a lengthy absence, while Etoile de Moscow would need to improve greatly on his effort at Chepstow first time out to take a hand. Mick Channon's Rustle In The Wind appeals most among the newcomers but it will be a surprise if he is good enough to beat the Stewart horse.
