      Verdict

      Several of these ran green on their respective debuts including CURRENCY EXCHANGE. The latter proved reluctant to enter the stalls but finished strongly from off the pace over the 6f at Haydock and the Haggas colt will appreciate this extra distance. Topper Bill also showed his inexperience when only sixth over track and trip and can do better while Desert History ran well over today’s distance at Haydock before fading in the closing stages and is preferred to Mister Allegro. Already gelded, Wor Willie is a half-brother to a couple of winners and may prove best of the newcomers.
