In a maiden were form is at somewhat of a premium THE FOUR MASTERS gets the call to come on from his debut and score with the progressive Master Melody and newcomer Eternal Youth also on the list. 'Very green' is the best description for how the pick ran in the early stages of that debut but he was very eye-catching in the finish and that run should have done him the world of good. Master Melody has improved in two starts and should progress again while Eternal Youth has enough in his pedigree to suggest a good first run Diamond Glass is another newcomer that could feature but with experience already gained we like The Four Masters.
