Verdict

Emerald Rocket has had plenty of chances and in truth hasn't appeared to be the most willing of conveyances at times, but in newly-applied blinkers he sets the standard for the others to aim towards. Viable alternatives are thin on the ground with the likes of Raashdy and Misscarlett of limited ability on the level. However, hurdling debutant GENNADY does fit the bill as a possible future winner in the Straightline Bloodstock silks. Time may tell that he bumped into a useful horse in the shape of the Nigel Twiston-Davies trained Took The Lot at Stratford (bumper).
