Verdict

An interesting opener. Aim For Glory is going the right way and could get more closely involved, and the same goes for Christopher Robin and Ingenuity. Future Proof should be in the mix, along with Star Mix, while Colour Me In could get involved if back to the form of her penultimate run. There are some potentially useful newcomers here too and the suggestion is to side with one of them, COOLONGOLOOK, who represents top connections and has some decent Flat form to his name. Flash De Clerval and Morning Skye are also worth market checks.
  1. Coolongolook
  2. Future Proof
  3. Aim For Glory
