Some of these may improve for the step up in distance but NEW TARABELA has the form in the book. James Tate's colt went very close over today's trip at Lingfield last time and an official rating of 75 is usually good enough to pick up a modest maiden such as this. Drifter and Galizzi fared well enough over shorter trips on their respective racecourse debuts. Both should have the requisite stamina to get involved, while the newcomer Sturmwind also has a middle-distance pedigree and is worth noting for any strong support.
