      Verdict

      Nature Boy is out of a miler and a half-brother to Black Dave, who won races between 5f and 1m2f. But the filly Stellar Surprise is a more interesting newcomer as she's from the same family as Hillstar and Crystal Capella, though will probably need further. GOOD TIME AHEAD was making ground hand over fist in the closing stages when second at Hamilton and any improvement will make him tough to beat. Bazwind showed definite promise at Chepstow and Kreb's Cycle sets the standard having been placed in all four starts so far and winning at Bath in April.
