    Verdict

    HAKKA is likely to prove popular for the Stoute yard. He made a promising start when runner-up over track and trip, despite not getting a clear run, and possible market rival El Tel was due to run at Windsor last night. Cooper sets the standard with a handicap mark of 74 but is thoroughly exposed but Aleator is interesting having been thereabouts for Andre Fabre in a couple of outings in France last year and having his first start for Sir Mark Prescott here. Important Message is also worth noting for Godolphin on his debut.
