Holy Island is a lightly raced type who is open to further improvement and shaped promisingly when staying on for third on his Bath return. The son of Deploy remains fairly treated and can progress further this term. Not Proven makes his handicap bow on a belated seasonal return and showed ability behind Balakheri in a Nottingham maiden in October while Washington Pink had to be dropped to a Beverley seller to score and wasn't disgraced in a claimer last time but this is tougher.
