Verdict
Gary Moore's novices are always worth a second look here but Fennann pulled hard before unseating his rider on his debut at Fontwell. JARLATH looks the one to be on as he did well to win four times on the Flat up to 1m4f considering his long-term future was always going to be as a jumper. Marcus Tregoning doesn't run many under NH Rules and New Colours won over a mile on the Polytrack as a two-year-old while Russian Bolero ran in the German Derby in July and was placed in a Listed race at Bremen earlier.
