Verdict
Both Missile Man and Robert's Star have the benefit of experience after modest debut efforts and can figure. But SADLER'S GOLD is likely to prove popular on his racecourse debut given he's a half-brother to a bumper winner. David Pipe's charge gets the vote ahead of fellow newcomer Tikkapick with winning pointer Rude And Crude perhaps the best of the rest.
