In depth

Verdict

The fact that MANTOBA started life in Novice company when ridden by Dettori suggests he's well-regarded, a feeling backed up by entries in all the big back-end juvenile contests, and he's taken to improve for the drop back to seven furlongs with Fallon up and a tongue-tie tried. Omnipotent doesn't hold any fancy entries suggesting he's not expected to be all powerful and along with stablemate Flinty is overlooked along with Red Lover, although Ed Dunlop's son of Azamour is expected to improve for his modest debut. Yojimbo is bred to make a two-year-old and showed that on debut although how much improvement there'll be remains to be seen so Pivot Bridge could go past him having finished behind a potential star on debut. Boston Court is a stable companion of our selection and along with fellow newcomers Home Office and Fennica merits respect particularly if supported.
