Those with experience don’t set a particularly high standard in this with Kingswood Flyer already beaten in minor events at Leicester and Sandown, though First Encore is almost certain to improve on a first run at Newbury while Enpassant was third at Ffos Las at the start of the month. TASK FORCE will almost certainly need a bit further in time but the Frankel colt has a Champagne Stakes entry so could be a cut above these. Wonderful Lives is a half-brother to a couple of winners so could prove a bargain at only 21,000gns.
