There was plenty to like about Master Brewer’s debut at Newbury as he stayed on nicely, despite being badly hampered. It’s difficult to see Nathless reversing that form here but MOYASSAR should prove a tough nut to crack. Richard Hannon’s stable rattled up a four-timer here last week and this son of Tamayuz looked a sure-fire future winner when only beaten a nose on debut at York. Mark Johnston’s two-year-olds can never be ignored here and The Trader is a half-brother to a winning miler, though only cost €16,000.
