Verdict
BAZZANA made a very promising debut in the Newmarket maiden won by the odds-on Realtra. She had been nibbled at in the betting and stayed on nicely despite looking green and should progress enough to take this. Ho Yam Lay wasn't too far behind in the same race and she had nothing like a clear run so is expected to get even closer. Buckleberry will improve for his Warwick debut and though Divine Law was beaten a long way at Bath despite starting favourite he looked very backward.
