Saeed Bin Suroor is very shrewd at placing the lesser lights in his Godolphin operation and this rates an excellent opportunity for GAME MASTER (NAP) to get off the mark. The Postponed gelding was noted staying on most pleasingly on seasonal reappearance when only beaten under two lengths in a decent-looking Windsor maiden. That sets a strong standard. Planet Legend and Robertthebruce were beaten 14 and 15 lengths respectively in a five-runner Thirsk maiden and need to come on plenty to threaten the selection and Liquid Metric looks a much likelier second choice for his thriving young handler after showing some decent promise on both starts.
