Verdict

Alright Sunshine, three times a winner in bumpers, had little to do on his debut under Flat rules at Musselburgh but couldn't have done it more easily. He looks smart but the concession of 12lb to the three-year-old FUTURE INVESTMENT may prove beyond him. Ralph Beckett's charge made a promising debut behind Telecaster at Windsor then landed what looked a decent Chester maiden in very good style. He can go in again though Dubai Tradition made an encouraging start at Newbury and is another with the scope to go on to better things. Grenadier Guard, a 125,000gns son of Australia and related to a host of winners including Order Of St George, is a newcomer to keep an eye on.
