Verdict
Subversive returned from a lay-off with an improved effort at Newmarket and should go well. He's preferred to Able Spirit, who drops back in trip after a couple of modest efforts over 7f. But one of the newcomers may prove good enough to make a winning start with American Artist related to a Listed winner and Frosty Flyer a half-brother to a winner in France. Use Your Filbert is another to note but Kevin Ryan's RISE TO POWER has a pedigree packed with speed so this half-brother to six winners gets a speculative vote.
