Verdict
Not much public form to work on and the market will provide further clues but Trick Cyclist could prove the answer ahead of Kuringai and Vienna's Boy. Andrew Balding's Trick Cyclist looked far from fully tuned and was easy to back when making his debut at Bath last month but showed plenty of pace to lead before tiring in the closing stages to finish third behind the well regarded winner. The son of Mind Games should improve significantly for the experience and this pacey performer should prove hard to peg back under Martin Dwyer. Richard Hannon's juveniles always command plenty of respect so newcomer Vienna's Boy, who is a Victory Note half-brother to a winning two-year-old, should be noted in the exchanges. Of the remainder, Kuringai is a little exposed having had four previous starts but put up a useful effort when fourth behind Caldy Dancer at Haydock last time and the form was handed a massive boost when the winner scored easily at Chester on Tuesday.
