Scary can win second time of asking at the expense of Compton Falcon and Kadouchski. The selection ran well to finish third on his racecourse debut here over eleven furlongs. This extra furlong will suit as he was doing all his best work late on. He looks the type to progress through the ranks and is very much one to stay on the right side of. Compton Falcon is starting to prove a touch frustrating being win less after five outings. He has shown enough form in the odd race to be a danger in this but he was disappointing at Mussleburgh last time out so should be treated with caution. Kadouchski might be a better proposition as he showed enough on his only start when fifth in a competitive maiden a Windsor back in May. The only side effect being that he may strip fitter for today's outing. So for the winner we return to Scary.
