Verdict

A really interesting novice event. The manner of JARRAAF's Kempton debut success marks him down as potentially smart so he may be up to defying the penalty. Stanage, Mount Teide and Night Lark all showed enough on debut last month to think they'll be winning sooner rather than later. There are also some newcomers from good yards who need keeping an eye on in the betting.

  1. JARRAAF
  2. STANAGE
  3. MOUNT TEIDE (IRE)
