One Kool Dude and Haafkry have both had chances already, especially the former, and are likely to find a northern maiden sooner or later. However, they might just run into a couple of useful sorts here and MEDIEVAL BISHOP is taken to reap the benefit of a promising C&D debut. Howard Johnson has had some useful juveniles through his hands and this fellow should come on plenty for that outing when clearly green. Don't be surprised if they're all upstaged by the newcomer Sardanapalus, who has an entry in the Group 2 Gimcrack Stakes and hails from the Kevin Ryan yard which is crammed with juvenile talent this term. The market should reflect stable expectations surrounding the Byron youngster.
