In depth

Verdict

Bow Street finished a promising third on his racecourse debut at Kempton but KNIGHT TO BEHOLD made an even stronger impression at Newbury on his introduction. He just missed out in a Class 2 conditions race over today’s trip and Harry Dunlop’s colt should go close again. Of the newcomers, jockey bookings suggest Wild West Hero is preferred to Refrain, while a full-brother of Talas won over a mile as a two-year-old and Al Muffrih cost 260,000gns.
