Verdict

Neither of those with experience have shown a lot so far so we'll concentrate on the five newcomers. Mark Johnston's Leqqaa should win races over middle-distances next year, while there is also plenty of stamina in the pedigree of Juno The Muffinman. Dutchman's Field is a half-brother to winning miler Spring Adventure but REPEATER could be a rare debut winner for Sir Mark Prescott. The stable's juveniles normally improve with experience but this son of the brilliant Montjeu should be right at home on this rain-softened surface and entries in some valuable sales races later in the season suggest he's well above average.
