Verdict

SCOOPED (4) is a Derryn gelding on debut for the Richards & Moyle team. Has shown nice signs in his lead-up work and gets in well with the claimer engaged, who sticks from the trials. Can make the perfect start. LOSEYATOETOE (8) is another debutant who has caught the eye at her jumpouts. A Star Turn filly for the Hyam camp, with Milnes booked a strong push. Can play a major role. WINE SNOB (6) looks the pick of the raced brigade, having stuck on gamely into second on debut. Better for the experience and retains Toeroek. Sure to be competitive. NAVY ROK (1) is a Merchant Navy gelding on debut for the Stokes yard. Has shown ability in his work and draws to get all the favours for Crowther from the inside alley. Holds genuine claims. REGAL RIPPER (2) brings the fitness and experience edge and shouldn't be overlooked.
