In depth

Verdict

Bush House is blinkered on debut but probably worth a market check. However, experience is likely to be key in this maiden with DRAW SWORDS given a final chance to come good. He is rated 6lb higher than likely market rival Pete So High and has yet to finish out of the frame. Cheekpieces are added to a tongue-strap but John Gosden’s charge will surely never get a better chance to open his account. Hermeneutics could be worth watching with a view to handicaps in the coming weeks.
