Bradbury sets the standard here and with an official mark of 73 will be no easybeat in this maiden, but he is vulnerable to the potential improver EL MAACHI, who gets the vote. The David Evans-trained pick showed plenty of potential on debut when not beaten far at Sandown and looks capable of the necessary improvement to go very close kept to this trip. Askaud showed up well on debut when she had the measure of all but one of her nine opponents at Wolverhampton and with her yard continuing in good form she is a threat. El Torbellino ran a reasonable race in a claimer first-up and Paul Hanagan is an eyecatching booking for the mount, though we suggest an interest in El Maachi.
