Verdict

AUNTIE MARGARET sets a decent standard and should have more to give now stepped up in trip for her third run. Dillian shaped well on debut and is bred to do better over middle distances, so he's a big danger. Percy Jones makes some appeal on paper and needs watching in the market on debut.
