Verdict

TEMPUS needed a helping hand from the Stewards at Newbury but there's no question he took his form up a notch, and with the prospect of more to come given how he’s bred, he remains of firm interest. Orbaan and Walhaan were not beaten far in a quality handicap at York 15 days ago, so command plenty of respect.

  1. TEMPUS
  2. ORBAAN
