PROVERB can land this with normal progress as there was cut in the ground when he finished runner-up at Windsor on last month’s debut. That looks stronger form than Dicko The Legend’s placed effort at Newmarket and the remainder with experience have yet to threaten. Spartan Arrow is a 380,000gns half-brother to the smart sprinter Twilight Gleaming and is preferred to Ssenwan and Zoology of the newcomers, though Ararat hails from last year’s winning yard.
