Verdict

JOHN O'GROATS shaped well on his handicap debut at Windsor where he was returning from a nine-month absence and, likely to strip fitter this time and with further progress likely, Michael Bell's charge could be the answer. It Is Now showed clear signs of ability in three starts as a 2-y-o and he is feared now handicapping off what looks a fair opening mark. Duelist and Give A Little Back are others to consider.
