Verdict

Pytheas probably has the best form of the few to have raced previously having been narrowly beaten first time out at Redcar but Mark Johnston's colt is unlikely to represent much in the way of value and preference is for Richard Hannon's BEYOND THE CITY, who is preferred to stable companion City Of Rome. The son of Elusive City has to be of interest on his debut as do Andrew Balding's pair White Devil and Dreamspeed. Marco Botti's Branderburgo made an encouraging debut at Doncaster in May over seven furlongs and the son of High Chapparal should appreciate the longer trip today. Alan Bailey's Bubbly Braveheart certainly improved for the step up in distance here last time and he has to be considered but preference is for Beyond The City. City Of Rome is a son of Elusive Quality and is bred to do well at this sort of a trip as a juvenile. From a stable in good form, he may be worth chancing first time up.
