      Verdict

      The three-year-old Retro Valley was scheduled to tackle the opener at Newton Abbot yesterday. The market will probably tell us what's expected from Nesterenko following a lengthy absence and Della Sun is also returning from a break. PERSPICACE didn't run badly in a decent contest at Fontwell 10 days ago and, in the hope that blinkers have the desired effect, he's given a narrow vote ahead of Shark Hanlon's Galway fourth Baby Jake and the unreliable Battlecat.
