Verdict

CARAMACK cost connections 170,000gns and is a full brother to the useful Hatta Fort, who won over this trip as a juvenile. He's easily the most interesting of the newcomers and just preferred to Royal Skies, who probably sets a decent standard on his debut second at Redcar. He's stoutly bred so will appreciate the uphill finish here. Newmarket fourth Harry Bosch has scope and should confirm that form with Tropical Song but Royal Prize was last of four over C&D on his introduction three weeks ago.
