In depth

Verdict

Rock Lobster, a half-brother to a winning miler, and Rokaban are among the debutants worth a second look in this. Always be Ready, Flying Fantasy, Greatest Journey and Winning Hunter should all improve on their respective introductions and Giantouch was prominent for a long way in a Doncaster maiden in July but this should go to STRONG CHEMISTRY. Charlie Appleby's son of Oasis Dream made his debut in a conditions stakes over course and distance earlier this month against more experienced rivals and only found one too good.
