Verdict
Bahamian Heights produced his best effort so far over 7f at Sandown so it seems a strange decision to drop him back a furlong for this. Major Crispies has already been placed at Leicester and Salisbury and should be thereabouts again but Meaning Of Life needs to step up again on his latest third at Kempton if he's to figure. Barbary and Speedfiend should improve on their debut runs but the interesting one looks to be MATHEMATICS, who changed hands for 145,000gns earlier this year and is related to several smart performers in the States. Fellow newcomer Island Remede may be best of the rest.
