Verdict

BETA READER produced just about his best effort to date despite things not fully going his way when just touched off at Chelmsford 23 days ago and a repeat should see Charlie Johnston's colt firmly in the mix again from a handy draw. Echo of Glory and Little She head up the dangers, while it's far too soon to be writing of Noss Mayo at this level.
