      Verdict

      Monoshka ran well enough for fourth at Newbury on his debut only to go backwards at Ascot last time albeit in better company than this. Ripper Street also failed to show any progress on his latest outing and it remains to be seen if SAKURAJIMA can do any better. He found only one too good at Windsor on his introduction and a chance is taken that Charlie Hills’ colt improves for that experience. Curve Ball was well beaten on his debut at Newbury and the newcomers look nothing special on breeding with Bizet perhaps proving best of them.
