Verdict

Those with experience don't set the bar that high so perhaps CERRO BLANCO can strike on debut and provide Charlie Appleby with a second successive win in this maiden. Galba may prove best of those who have seen the track, while the other newcomers, Big Snoopy and Makerstoun, have pedigrees/price tags which suggest they could be well above average.
