Verdict

TALIS EVOLVERE clearly improved markedly for a gelding operation coupled with the step up to 1m when a taking winner at Pontefract in September and the assessor may have taken a chance with this 3-y-os opening mark. There's plenty of depth to this, with City of York, Kings Code and Prince of Zenda a trio of potential threats.

  1. TALIS EVOLVERE (IRE)
  2. CITY OF YORK
  3. KING'S CODE
