Copper Canyon was promising on debut when finding just one the better and the Andy Haynes runner should build on that but having shown improvement from a debut run MATTORAL is given the call. The colt showed plenty of promise in a decent enough Newmarket maiden before stepping up on that form to find one to good at Kempton last time. He looks to be heading in the right direction and he might not need to find much more. Zamina has only just been held over course and distance the last twice so should be considered while Paul Hanagan is a strong jockey booking on debutante Lovers Peace but she'll probably get better with time. Mattoral looks the most progressive.
