        Verdict

        It was testing ground when CRYSTAL MARINER finished third at Pontefract on his debut and improvement is expected on this surface. He gets the vote to open his account. Open Choice ran well over a mile here and is preferred to Jo's Rainbow and Easter Island while the 190,000gns purchase Cuernavaca, Lion's Pride and Elusive Empire are all newcomers related to Listed winners.
