In another hard one to call, it is highly likely that one of the newcomers will prevail, and we nominate Impartial to go in first time over Red Spell and Bienvenue, with Ameyrah best of those to have raced so far. Paul Cole does not keep his juveniles going as winter approaches unless they are capable of delivering the goods, and so we can expect a good run from Impartial, a son of Polish Precedent who holds an entry in next year's Vodafone Derby. He will lack for nothing in stamina on breeding and gets the vote. Bienvenue holds no fancy entries but comes from a stable that have been in fair form over the past few weeks, while Red Spell's yard can always be relied on to find winning opportunities for their juveniles. Ameyrah faded to the rear on her Newbury introduction, but the experience will have done her good, and it would be no surprise if she were to be involved. Cora and Nuts For You can only get better as well, as can Dubaian Mist, but our selection is Impartial to small stakes.
