Verdict
A competitive little handicap. Both ROMAN CENTURION and Spirit of Farhh had strong juvenile form and have progressed again as 3-y-os, with marginal preference for John Ryan's gelding. Cosi Bello and Brize Norton recorded impressive 7f victories on the same card at Kempton last month and remain completely unexposed now handicapping, the latter feared most with the potential for an uncontested lead.

VerdictWon 6f Goodwood novice for Richard Hannon last summer and highly tried in listed/group company thereafter. Needed the run on stable debut and took a step forward when keeping on under hands and heels to finish fourth in a 7f Goodwood handicap last month. Could be more to come with Ryan Moore booked.- 6.

VerdictProgressive as a 2-y-o, solid from when third of 5 in novice at Salisbury on final run as a juvenile. Resumed progress (following 8 months off / gelding operation) when making all to land a 7f Kempton maiden last month, quickened clear. Now goes handicapping and looks a useful sort in the making. - 4. Roman CenturionJ: Rossa RyanT: John RyanF: 82-14

VerdictLeft debut form well behind when runner-up in a strong Yarmouth novice (7f) in October. Further progress when successful over a mile at the same course on reappearance and backed that up with a very creditable fourth on handicap debut at Newbury (1m) last month. Remains with potential back at 7f.

VerdictStrong in the betting when building on debut promise to land an 8-runner novice at Wolverhampton (7f) in January but that form hasn't worked out and she struggled when upped to listed level at Lingfield (7f) in March. Lightly-raced but needs to improve in first time hood on handicap debut.- 3. Spirit Of FarhhJ: Charles BishopT: Eve Johnson HoughtonF: 231-92

VerdictHad bumped into some useful sorts on first 2 starts and showed more progress when winning maiden at Newbury final 2-y-o start. Flopped on reappearance but straight back to form when chasing home smart Stanhope Gardens at Salisbury (1m) 3 weeks ago. Solid claims back at 7f. - Unnamed Favourite
