Much better is expected from Alhamareer in this given he failed to cope with testing ground at Nottingham on his debut. The Sir Michael Stoute-trained I Zingari is another on a long list of likely improvers along with Azilian, Salisbury runner-up Gild Master and Newbury third Major Mac. Peterhouse is a newcomer to note from a powerful yard but Godolphin's PATHWAY TO HONOUR cost 360,000gns and the Derby entry may well be good enough to make a winning start.
