Verdict

A race which lacks any real strength in depth, presenting Sir Mark Prescott with an excellent opportunity for his returning three-year-old ALL POINTS WEST. This son of Speightstown appeared to be very much a work in progress as a juvenile, displaying clear and obvious signs of inexperience in each of his three AW starts (7f-1m). From a Galileo mare, he promises to relish the step up in trip for seasonal reappearance, turf and handicap debut. Furthermore, a gelding operation and wind surgery provide additional reasons to anticipate a degree of improvement. Of the remainder, the consistent Richard Hannon-trained turf maiden Hermocrates is most feared.
  1. All Points West

  3. Maiden Voyage
