Verdict

TALL STORY is a straightforward type with some solid form to his name so, in a race where many of his rivals have questions to answer, he might be able to open his account starting out for a new yard. Startedwithakiss is an obvious danger despite a lengthy absence, and Bay of Bengal strikes as an interesting newcomer.
