Verdict

There was plenty of promise in GRAND VENDETTA's debut second to a potentially useful novice at Chepstow, especially considering that he was evidently very green. That experience will have done him the world of good and he shades preference ahead of Wandering Ego, who hasn't really built on his runaway Stratford success in two subsequent starts in this sphere but he nevertheless remains of interest. Inkaman showed ability on his sole start on the Flat and is worth a second look.

  1. GRAND VENDETTA (IRE)
  2. WANDERING EGO (IRE)
  3. INKAMAN
