Three of these put in solid displays on their debuts and they could fight out the finish. Fol Hollow is just giving the vote ahead of Aain To Storm and Celeberry. Dandy Nicholls reckons he has a good batch of two-year-old's this season and this son of Monashee Mountain chased home the impressive Mr Hardy on his debut in March. That winner has gone in again and so the form looks rock solid. Aaim To Storm, a very expensive purchase, was fourth in a decent looking Goodwood race last week and should improve on that effort, making him a very real threat. The Irish raider Celeberry is hard to assess but showed plenty of promise on his only outing at Tipperary. Glenluji could be the pick of the newcomers, but on this occasion we will go with experience and we will put forward Fol Hollow.
