The stronger of the two divisions and FREE FOR ALL is taken to glean the scalps of Noafal and Mutafajer. Sylvester Kirk's charge shaped encouragingly on debut at Newmarket having bombed the start and then stayed on into sixth without being knocked about. He may lack the illustrious pedigrees of many in this race but he should have learnt about the intracacies of racing and can make experience count. Noafal was third on his debut. Regrettably, the second in that contest has been turned over at odds-on at Ffos Las since. Mutafajer is respected. Related to a number of seven furlong specialists, his family are almost a who's who of the Shadwell Stud's top performers. Quite Something is a fairly cheap Footstepsinthesand filly that is closely related to French winners. Swish Dish is from the family of 2,000 Guineas winner, Cockney Rebel, and looks to have been Richard Hughes choice of the two Richard Hannon runners. She is a medium for a major watch of the market this afternoon. Compton Way appears to be a typically hardy son of Compton Place. This race will throw up plenty of winners but for today, we are with Free For All.
