Verdict

Barranco could be up to taking this with Rolex Free and Miss Koen rated as the main dangers. The selection is a well bred sort from a shrewd yard and although he has shown very little over hurdles he will not need to be anything special to win this on his debut. Rolex Free would have claims on the pick of his form and it would be no surprise to see him go well at a decent price, but he finished last on his latest appearance and he is hard to put forward with any confidence. Miss Koen is another worthy of respect on her latest fouth behind Bank On Him in this grade. She is sure to appreciate this trip and has definite place claims. Sungio looks to be on a handy mark and could also go well but he has had plenty of similar chances of late without taking one and for that reason he is passed over. This is a trappy affair and stakes should be kept to a minimum but for the winner we return to Barranco.
