Verdict
PINT SIZE is hard to oppose and his starting price is likely to reflect the fact. He's well clear of those with an official rating, ran out a seven length winner over C&D in similar company last month and had today's rival Spring Daisy well behind when runner-up here last time. Auntie Joy and Ciara Boo have plenty to find on their Fibresand debuts and Miss Medici makes more appeal than Johnny Cavagin as she was placed over 5f here on her latest start.
