OSTAAD finished 10 lengths clear of the third when runner-up at Kempton on his debut. A good run from the winner, Concise, earlier on the card would boost confidence and he gets the nod despite Mickael Barzalona's presence on the other Godolphin runner and newcomer Layl. Sublimation is going the right way and is preferred to Our Obsession and Number One London while debutants to keep an eye on include Dashing Star, a half-brother to Group winner Barshiba, the 140,000gns colt Deficit and also John Gosden's charge, Relentless.
