The opener can go the way of Atheneum at the expense of the two newcomers Furmingadelagiusta and Kings Causeway. The selection trained by Mark Johnston has experience on his side and now with three runs under his belt he has improved with each effort. His latest start was eye catching when third to The Old Fella at Epsom two weeks ago and a repeat performance will see him difficult to beat. Furmingadelagiusta is well worth noting in the market along with Kings Causeway as both trainers are good at producing first time out two year old winners. As is the Neville Callaghan trained Diggs Lane who is nicely bred and is bound to know its job first time of asking. But for the winner we return to Atheneum.
