Verdict

SAAFARR was unlucky not to get off the mark last season having run consistently well in turf maidens. It is perhaps something of a worry that he didn't win at least once last term but there's every chance he'll be stronger now and he is given the nod for a winning AW bow. The once-raced Aga Khan colt Zabalan is rated a massive danger having run with huge promise in a Curragh maiden last May on his only outing. They look the two to focus on for win purposes. At a price, newcomer Buttermere could have something to say for herself while Nivvo merits consideration for placings having performed admirably on just her second start over C&D recently.
