Verdict

EXCEL'S BEAUTY recorded the best form on offer when second at Leicester on her debut. That looks a better effort than Speed The Plough's introduction at Bath as he passed the post in second but was later disqualified with his jockey weighing-in light. Breeding suggests the newcomers Celtic Ice and Grandad Chunk will be better over further but Pensax Lad is worth noting along with Relation Alexander, a half-sister to seven winners.
