COLIBRI finished ahead of a subsequent winner when fourth over today’s trip at Newbury and Hugo Palmer’s colt gets the nod in this. He looks to have most to fear from Endeavour, placed over 6f at Windsor on his racecourse debut and expected to stay this extra distance. Rock On Dandy posted a better effort last time and Poet's Charm can only improve in a first-time visor while Leonidas is related to a host of winners and may prove best of the newcomers.
