Verdict

RED METAL remains one to be interested in following his impressive debut success. Newcomer Goliath Flight has to be respected for the Skeltons, especially if backed, while sole filly Frenati isn't one to underestimate.

7	Plenty of stamina in her pedigree but dam won a bumper, and she shaped much better than the beaten distance on debut at Doncaster in November.
