Verdict

COTTONOPOLIS hails from a top yard and he is taken to get off the mark at the first time of asking in this maiden auction contest. The selection has a good jockey in the saddle and can see off the more experienced locally-trained runner The Blue Bower who can get the better of the unraced Moorland Spirit in the battle for third.
  1. Cottonopolis
  2. The Blue Bower
  3. Moorland Spirit
