In depth

Verdict

Unless one of the newcomers is above average, this should just concern Breezit and Soonest, with preference for the latter. He showed enough on his debut at Headquarters to suggest he wouldn't be long in losing his maiden tag and he looks to have been found the ideal opening here. Mick Channon, who saddled the third behind Soonest at Newmarket relies on Breezit, who tackled her own sex in a maiden at the same venue. While she is sure to have learnt plenty from the experience, she looks to have too much on against the colt. Of the newcomers Trick Cyclist, a half-brother to useful juvenile sprint winner Stregone is one to keep an eye on, but he wasn't foaled until the 4th of May and clearly won't be as forward as some of these, while Royal Supremacy, a half-sister to three winners including juvenile winner Sophorific, is another to keep an eye on regarding the future.
