        Verdict

        Most of Saeed Bin Suroor's two-year-olds have improved from their first start this season but Futurist needs to having been well held first time up at Leicester and a better bet looks to be DUTY AND DESTINY, who gets the vote ahead of Exemplary. Mark Johnston's colt has run well in both starts, showing improved form on the Polytrack at Wolverhampton from his debut on the Fibresand at Southwell, and he has to be respected on his turf debut having shown that this trip should hold no fears last time. Alan King's Groove Master has been well held in both starts so far and of more interest may be David Simcock's Lovely Eyes, who ran promisingly on his only start so far in a Ffos Las maiden. This should not take much winning and Duty And Destiny has solid claims in it having run well in both starts over seven furlongs so far and Brian Meehan's is filly bred to appreciate the longer trip today.
