Well beaten on debut for David O'Meara but left that form well behind on reappearance for new trainer when springing a surprise in what is traditionally a strong turf maiden. The front two pulled well clear there and he can progress again.

210,000 gns yearling by Society Rock who improved significantly when winning on his second start last year. Form nothing out of the ordinary but open to improvement on his reappearance and displayed a good attitude in the win.

Won on the AW before being pitched into the Group 3 Prestige Stakes at Glorious Goodwood. Was too green in that company and winner caused a shock in the 1000 Guineas. Physically looked the type to improve with age and returns after wind surgery.

Failed to build on promise of his debut on his reappearance and may be better in handicaps over further.

Showed ability in both starts and should improve as he steps up in distance. More required in a tough race but leading trainer really starting to hit form.

Outpaced before some late progress on only start at the end of last year. Tough ask on reappearance but stable's runners tend to improve with experience and worth a check in the betting.

Forecasts

Verandah (8/11), Adjutant (9/4), Worth Waiting (7/1), Strange Society (10/1), Jahaafel (10/1), Epaulement (18/1), Garden Oasis (20/1), Deliverance (20/1), Island Sound (20/1), Tajarrob (25/1), One Flew Over (66/1)

Verdict

A competitive affair which could produce some nice types going forwards for leading stables. VERANDAH remains the one to beat on her reappearance having been highly tried when last seen in a Group race that couldn't have worked out better. Connections always considered her to improve with age and she is potentially smart. Adjutant rates a danger although it wouldn't be a surprise to see Deliverance get much closer to him.. Strange Society can progress after a gutsy win while Worth Waiting would appreciate a strong pace after a promising debut and can improve significantly up in trip.
