Verdict

KAREZAK is rated 85 and should be winning a ordinary maiden such as this. Placed three times in Ireland, he found only one too good again on his debut for Alan King at Haydock with the re-opposing Panatella back in fourth. Cry Joy was tailed off on his reappearance at Lingfield but Seamour made a promising start when runner-up over track and trip and a bold bid is expected in this. Mobhirr is a half-brother to a Group 3 winner and is a newcomer to keep an eye on in the betting.
