In depth

Verdict

Rated 84, PORTH SWTAN just missed out over track and trip in a Class 2 handicap last time. Charlie Hills’ colt should be opening his account with a similar effort. Plunger carries a 6lb penalty for making a winning start over 5f at Kempton so Maghaweer is preferred on a placed effort over today’s trip at York. Moqarrab is a $400,000 US-bred newcomer representing Godolphin while Daltrey and Tum Tum are other newcomers to keep an eye on for the future.
