All of these have visited the winner's circle in their first season so this is a tight nursery. However, GALLASIDE is a scopey individual who gives the distinct impression he will progress with time and has already done well to grind out back-to-back wins. He stays really well so can complete the three-timer under regular pilot, Hollie Doyle. Hexagon has been brought along steadily and this improving sort, off the mark at Ffos Las last month, can be expected to progress again. He looks a danger along with Arthur's Court, who also looks the type to maintain his improvement after last month's Windsor win.
