A modest maiden in which James Given's Futuristic is anticipated to continue the stable's good form ahead of debutantes Do Buy Me and Hazy. The Magic Ring gelding has raced against some decent sorts in Kris Kin and Tante Rose in the past and faces nothing of that ilk in this contest. Do Buy Me was a cheap purchase but heads from a shrewd yard. Hazy is a well bred daughter of Vettori and is closely related to Night Shift. Any market confidence must be respected. Bill Middleton has had four starts on the all-weather and is dropped significantly in trip. Ruddington Grange is thoroughly exposed on turf as plating class and officially has plenty to find on BHB ratings.
