Verdict

Several possibilities in this competitive nursery. Clive Cox has taken this a couple of times in the last 10 years so the suggestion is his Haydock novice winner SILVER SOVEREIGN. The Bookkeeper may have more to offer now returning to 7f and heads the dangers along with Jumeirah Storm, First Mate and Magi Melchior, whose stable has won this 4 times since 2017.

9	Promising second on 6f Salisbury debut and built on that to go one place better over 7f at Haydock (good to firm) 17 days later.

3	Won a small-field novice at Haydock (7f, good to soft) in May and has shown better form in defeat since, notably his third of 18 in 7f Glorious Goodwood nursery. Creditable sixth in a valuable sales race at York last time considering the drop back to 6f didn't suit. Considered back at 7f. 2nd Pick 3 The Bookkeeper (Ire) Jockey: Ryan Moore Trainer: Richard Hughes J: Ryan Moore T: Richard Hughes	96	-	-	-	12%	8/1

4	Split a pair of next-time-out winners when promising fourth at Salisbury before digging deep to land 6f Doncaster novice (good to firm) in July. Cheekpieces on first time, creditable sixth of 18 in nursery at York (6f, good) 30 days ago, rallying as if this step up to 7f will suit. 3rd Pick 4 Jumeirah Storm (Ire) Jockey: Hector Crouch Trainer: William Knight J: Hector Crouch T: William Knight	96	-	-	-	8%	12/1
