COMMANDMENT travels up from Newmarket with every chance having placed in both starts so far including a second at Salisbury last time. Matvei Platov showed some progress without threatening the winner at Carlisle when finishing ahead of Nrgize but one of the newcomers may prove a bigger threat. Espressoo is a half-sister to a Listed winner and preferred to Claret Club while 150,000gns purchase Samurai Sneddz is related to four winners.
