DOLPHIN SQUARE (NAP) is only five and was bought for £80,000 after taking a Templecacarriga maiden in January by 12 lengths. He looks a nice prospect in this sphere and can make a winning start under Rules though Cyrius Moriviere would be a danger if retaining most of his former ability and Dido, who ran well at Cheltenham last year, will strip fitter for his second at Garthorpe and is reunited with Dale Peters. Asangy, Brave Jaq and Torran Na Dtonn also warrant a mention but Bletchley Castle seems to have had his limitations exposed.
