An excellent turnout for a race crammed with progressive young stayers in which HUMBLE HERO may prove good enough. His yard have enjoyed a stream of winners this term and the High Chaparral colt, an easy winner of a Doncaster maiden latest, continues to suggest that this step-up in trip will prove ideal. He inhabits a feasible mark for his handicap bow and has scope for considerable improvement after just three starts. Zenon boasts similar credentials and is respected for his top class yard whilst Mister Manduro and recent dual winner, Dominating, afford Mark Johnston a strong double claim. Cribbs Causeway is improving at a rate of knots and cannot be ruled out upped in class, whilst Mistress Quickly and Look My Way are others of interest.
