        Verdict

        Potentially some sort sorts going to post for this, none more so than Checklow who shaped with real promise at Newmarket. A fine big colt, entries in both the English and Irish Derby¿s suggest he is highly thought of and with that initial experience under his belt, he can land this en route to better things. Colarado Blue had a recent pipe-opener when staying on from behind but is likely to be more effective in handicaps. Support for Drum Major should be noted while Celt displayed some promise in maidens last season when it appeared not much was expected. One more outing will see Celt qualified for a handicap mark when he will be of some interest. Checklow showed real promise at Newmarket and it will be intriguing to see how he gets on.
