Unibet/EBF Restricted Novice Stakes (GBB Race) (Div 1)

Put his experience to good use when a half-length winner on debut at Brighton, showing a willing attitude, and he is bred to handle this step up to 7f; his debut form has since been given mixed assessments, but he looks a genuine threat under a penalty if it holds up.

A 20,000gns St Mark's Basilica colt whose dam was successful over 10f in France on her second start; there is a staying pedigree here that could suit this trip in time, but with no previous form the market will be the best guide to his chance on debut.

A 37,000 euro Ten Sovereigns colt whose dam was a consistent performer over 6-7f on artificial ground, so this track type could play to his strengths; it is a tough ask on first appearance and he is likely to need the experience, but the breeding has some relevance here.

Failed to handle the track at Ripon last time, where he was beaten nine lengths having been left behind once the race quickened; the dam's stamina means 7f should suit better, and this is a big, attractive type who looks capable of better on an artificial surface.

A Time Test gelding who is a half-brother to the high-class Fox Legacy, giving him strong stamina credentials for this trip; his dam went close on her debut suggesting a racing instinct in the family, and he rates a genuine threat based on pedigree alone despite being unraced.
