Some top stables represented here and we will side with the Sir Michael Stoute trained Seasider, Moksi and Fabreze could be the main rivals. Michael always introduces some of his best juveniles at this time of year and Seasider looks the part on paper. He is by the good sire Zaminder out of a Danehill mare that is ralated to some top performers in France. The market will of course give more clues, but if supported he could be the best option. Moksi is trained by Peter Chapple-Hyam who has a good line to juvenile form and this son of Olden Times does hold an entry in the Redcar two-year-old trophy. Frabreze is possibly the pick of the experienced runners having shown plenty of promise when fourth behind Erigal Lad at Haydock. He should come on for the run and he looks a danger to all. Caprio is another newcomer to keep on the right side, but it is fellow debutante Seasider that gets the verdict.
