Another potentially informative contest. Taravara stepped up from his debut with a good run at Lingfield while stablemate Counsel is by Frankel and the first foal of a winning AW miler. Handsome and Oz Legend will both improve from their debuts and Law Of Nature missed the break Kempton before staying on. Camelot Tales cost 140,000gns and is out of a smart miler but the vote goes to FIREWORKS, who cost a massive €850,000 being a son of Kingman out of a mare who has winners with her first three foals.
