None of these have threatened so far but STRUTTER will likely improve for his powerful yard fitted with hood having made a modest debut at Warwick. Reggae De Baune struggled in heavy going at Carlisle on his debut and is another likely to finish a lot closer while Climbing makes his debut fitted with a combination of headgear having had a breathing operation. Senor Diaz is a brother to a winner on the Flat though his dam won a bumper.
