Genuine tempo from No Verdict leading Lindos. NO NO YES (3) resumes today and has been switched to the Sydney stable of the prominent Price & Kent Jnr. barn. His two trials in readiness have been very good and his SP on debut stands out. Can resume on a winning note as he looks above average. HEY JUDE (5) can make an impression first-up with two trials under her belt. Drawn well and shapes as the main danger. NO VERDICT (1) failed to fire on debut but is clearly better than that and remains under strong notice in his return. DELUCE (4) falls into a similar boat and appears the next in line. SUGGESTED PLAY: No No Yes can return a winner.
