      In depth

      Verdict

      Ydra and West Newton are having a first run on Turf with the latter taking a huge step up in trip. Nordano is clearly one of the lesser lights at Mark Johnston’s yard so it seem pointless opposing MOON KING, who bounded clear over track and trip nine days ago and only has a 4lb penalty. The market will probably tell us what to expect from the remainder.
