The eventual winner went clear turning into the home straight at Chelmsford and JACINTH was unable to make up the deficit. She gets another chance in this given Al Watan has gone backwards since a promising debut at Newbury and is fitted with headgear today. The latter’s stablemate Perfect Balance makes his debut but Tadreeb is a half-brother to a Listed winner and Fast Steps is a full-brother to a useful handicapper and that pair make most appeal of the newcomers. Villeurbanne showed some ability when fourth at Sandown and looks best of the rest.
