Verdict

This is very competitive with a plethora of unexposed 3-y-o handicappers from top stables. EVALUATION couldn't have caught the eye much more at Windsor last time when staying on nicely under tender handling. The step up in trip should suit and he makes plenty of appeal on handicap debut. Vitruve should improve for the trip too and has to be respected. Soapy Stevens also can't be ruled out.
