Verdict

ALMERIC continued his theme of big race-by-race progress when successful in this listed company at Newmarket in the spring and given his pedigree and the yard he represents, he's expected to continue the excellent work. This is quite a tightly-knit bunch, with Caviar Heights offered for forecast purposes.
