Verdict

There was plenty to like about how San Donato won at Kempton last time and Roger Varian's colt could go very close now upped in grade. The same applies to BREATH OF AIR, whose Newbury win last time is working out well and can probably also be marked up a bit, and he is just preferred. Barbill and Garrus are others with claims in a good opener.
  1. Breath Of Air
