Verdict
This looks very tricky with only Bint Arcano having won on the course and several making their debuts here. Turn Tide gained his second Turf victory from four starts in a Class 2 Newcastle nursery and looks certain to have a good second season while Mark Johnston's trio of Beaverbrook, who ran exclusively in Group company after landing his maiden, Montsarrat, a triple winner on fast ground from just five starts, and the four-times winner Bathos, who appears to act on any going on Turf, are all greatly respected. Richard Fahey is also represented by three runners and Hutton looks progressive after his victory at Southwell while Theos Lolly is very consistent and well enough handicapped to get involved. Dolphin Vista completes the Malton handler's trio and he did well to land a York maiden in October. SABAANI has improved with each run and won nicely at Chelmsford. With race-fitness on his side and a progressive profile he's taken to complete a double.
