Verdict

DARING LEGEND (due to be 2 lb higher in future) ran well on his first start for 6 months/debut for the Mick Appleby yard when a close-up third at Kempton on Saturday and, with the drop back to 6f expected to suit, he looks to hold solid claims with the possibility of more to come. Blue Virtue is high on the shortlist on handicap debut/returned to sprinting, with Influence another respected eased in class.
