Duke Of North wasn't beaten far in an ordinary maiden at Doncaster last time while improvement is expected from the likes if Giannizzero and Prince Of Time. But it would be no surprise if a newcomer proved good enough and BRIDGEKEEPER makes most appeal of those. He's a half-brother to Group winners Orcadian and Rapscallion and makes more appeal than Yeah Cool and Lady Atlas, who are bred to need further. Dark Wave and Uptight are others to keep an eye on in the betting.
