Siren's Cove was very green when third over 5f here on debut and is certain to improve. Bushtown Boy and Pivot Point may both need mote time, however, while James Fanshawe's juveniles often need a run or two so Presto Boy is best watched. Belardo should be ready, however, though his half-brother Berling was a stayer. Nothing went right for HEARTBREAK HERO on debut at Newmarket but he's expected to leave that run well behind here and can recoup losses.
