Verdict

THUNDER BLUE probably would have made a winning debut at Haydock had he not met some traffic and sets a high standard. Sennockian went close at Ayr first time up and is entitled to build on that, while all 3 newcomers have appealing profiles, notably Soldier's Secret.

  1. THUNDER BLUE
  2. SENNOCKIAN (IRE)
  3. SOLDIER'S SECRET
