Verdict

Not a strong-looking novice for the track and FONDO BLANCO makes most appeal. He shaped really well first time up in a Newbury maiden run in a good time 5 weeks ago and seems sure to improve. Pontefract winner Apache Green and Belgrave are the dangers.

  1. FONDO BLANCO
  2. APACHE GREEN
  3. BELGRAVE
