Verdict

There was a lot to like about ELARQAM's debut, beating a smart sort with a certain degree of ease and third and fourth have come out and won subsequently. He looked like he'd be suited to a step up in trip that day but he may have too much class for these rivals regardless. Hugo Palmer's runners often take a big step forward from their debut so it's interesting Fajjaj was up to winning first time out. However, Tip Two Win could prove the main danger having already run some big races in Listed company,
  1. Elarqam
  2. Tip Two Win
  3. Fajjaj
