Verdict

Several choicely bred newcomers on show including FINE TUNING, who represents a yard operating at a 25% strike rate with their representatives in this sphere so far this term and the booking of Sean Bowen very much catches the eye. He shades preference over Paul Nicholls' Beau Speed before market clues. Shady Knight and Murphy's Mate complete the shortlist.
