Verdict
The speedily-bred TRIBESMAN hasn't run since scoring impressively on soft ground at Musselburgh in early April but an entry in the Gimcrack suggests he's well regarded and this looks an ideal stepping stone. Salisbury winner Racquet has competed at a much higher level in two subsequent starts and ran well in the Super Sprint so he's an obvious danger. Imperious One didn't attract much support at Windsor but came with a strong late burst to snatch the spoils and can only get better while Jazz Legend followed his opening victory at Haydock with a reasonable effort in the Norfolk Stakes. Sixties Sue has been inconsistent but would have a shout on her close fourth in a Newmarket Listed race.
