Verdict

A winner over 1m on his final start as a juvenile, FULLFORWARD ran his best race yet for his new yard when runner-up over this sort of trip at Salisbury 3 weeks ago (Pink Lily placed third) and he can confirm the promise of that run and come out on top. The latter-named, a subsequent winner over C&D 9 days ago, rates a big threat however, ahead of Star Sprite.
