Registrar gets the vote in this competitive maiden with All That And More and Curtain Bluff put forward as the main dangers. The selection showed promise in his three runs last season, the best of which was at Leicester when he was a close second behind River Alhaarth. He looked as though he still needed to strengthen up last season, and he may be one that really make his mark this campaign. The booking of Frankie Dettori catches the eye and he is taken to score. All That And More is a well-bred colt by Unfuwain and he is certainly very interesting on his racecourse debut. If the market speaks in his favour then he would certainly be one to consider. Curtain Bluff is another likely type on breeding and with his stable in good form he has got an obvious chance of making his mark on his racecourse bow. Desert Hawk is from a top yard but he doesn't seem to run two races alike and we are quite happy to stick with Registrar as our idea of the winner.
