HOO YA MAL (NAP) won a very valuable maiden at York in taking fashion and looks well up to this level. He could be another winner for the Balding/Murphy partnership which has been so prolific this summer. Eldrickjones has been holding his own in stronger company over 6f but he’s by sprinter Cotai Glory so this extra furlong may not be ideal. Find finished ahead of Noble Truth and Alflaila at Newmarket before landing the odds at Yarmouth and enters the reckoning while Razzle Dazzle is a colt with a future based on a second and first at HQ. Ribhi’s Salisbury win is working out well but this is a much tougher assignment.
