        Verdict

        KOMACHI never threatened when third at Kempton on his debut but normal progress should see him bang there at the finish with his yard in flying form. Neon City is another likely to improve but one of the newcomers may prove a bigger danger. Both Daddy Frank and Moraweth hail from winning families in North America while Polar Fleece is a half-brother to Group 3 winner Yalta. Roby Mill’s dam is related to high-class sprinter Mabs Cross while Captain Cooper is related to a host of winners.
