Verdict

NAVAL CAPTAIN did all that was asked of him when winning on debut at Newcastle last month despite looking very green in the early stages. He should have learnt a lot from that experience and is likely to have improved again so looks the one to beat. Old Port caught the eye last time and he could have more to offer. Acrion is an interesting newcomer too.
