Verdict

Perhaps best to focus on the 3-y-os, with HEY TEACHER selected to make a winning start in handicaps under Oisin Murphy. Eton Blue is sure to be a threat if in the same form as when making all in clear-cut fashion at Brighton last week, while Jim Boyle has a good recent record in this race so Angels Roc is also respected.
