Verdict

HAVANA ROCKET is inexperienced in terms of competing on an artificial surface, but did improve with each of his three starts on turf (as a juvenile) and sets the clear form standard. Furthermore, with the distinct possibility that wind surgery will see him stronger still, this race rates as the golden opportunity to break the maiden. Unless the Mark Johnston-trained newcomer Mustadun proves exceptionally strong in the betting exchanges, the likeliest danger is the C&D proven Solar Park.
