Huzzah can make experience count over Palmerin, with Austintatious and Mubher seen as the other leading players. Barry Hills has his string in very good form at present, and that augurs well for the chance of Huzzah who has had four outings to date. The stable was not firing on all cylinders when he began his career, but is firing in the winners now, and there was a lot to like about the selection's effort in a class 2 nursery at Goodwood at the start of the month. Set with plenty to do from a low draw, he weaved his way through in the straight, and was a creditable second to Coasting. Back in maiden company now, he looks all set to break his duck. Palmerin stayed on well enough over seven-furlongs at Salisbury to suggest that he will get the mile, while Austintatious has his stamina questioned even more, but the fact that he did have an entry in the Racing Post Trophy tells us that his connections have no qualms about his ability to stay a mile. Mubher has taken on much better company in two starts at Newmarket, but has not impressed yet, and may be one to follow in nurseries, with preference for Huzzah on this occasion.
