Verdict

A useful 3-time winner at his best on the Flat, SQUARE D'ALBONI made an encouraging start in this sphere when third in a Newbury novice on debut for Dan Skelton 16 days ago. Looking sure to build on that initial effort, he makes plenty of appeal in what rares a less demanding affair. Shamsat, a fairly useful 11f winner in France is also worthy of consideration on debut for James Owen. Whatsgoingonmarvin is surely better than his Kempton debut run over Christmas would imply, also.
