        Verdict

        Ventriloquist is rated 85 and should have the beating of Anonymous John on these terms after finishing a close-up third at Kempton. But that form doesn't look any stronger than TADEEQ's recent second at Thirsk and the Haggas colt is just preferred. Capsize never threatened at Kempton on his racecourse debut but looks sure to improve and Champagne Bob is a newcomer to note ahead of Naval Action given the latter's trainer has a much better strike rate with older horses at the track.
