Verdict

Having made plenty of appeal on paper, PACIFICA PIER got off to a winning start in a Sandown novice last month, form boosted by the runner-up scoring next time, and he is taken to defy a penalty with improvement to come. Expensive debutant Del Maro helps to give Charlie Appleby a strong hand in the race, with The Joker the pick of the remainder.
