Verdict

Should Sky Defender bounce back from a poor second start he would be very hard to beat but that performance does leave question marks. In contrast LONELY BOY has got better on each run and the turn of foot he showed in his breakthrough success should stand him in good stead to win more races. Castle Quarter shaped well on debut and any improvement would see him involved.
  1. Lonely Boy
  2. Sky Defender
  3. Castle Quarter
