Verdict

LEESHAAN could only manage fourth when sent off favourite at Leicester but had a legitimate excuse. He failed to get a clear run in the closing stages and is worth another chance in this. The remainder with experience may need more time on the evidence of recent debut efforts but several of the newcomers are worth a second glance. That list includes Godolphin’s 160,000gns newcomer, Stage Magic while Knight In Armour is a half-brother to the high-class Joshua Tree with Coastal Drive, Kraka and Tunes Of Glory others to note.
