Baroot is an interesting newcomer for the De Kock yard. But the 200,000gns colt might have expected an easier task in this than facing BARTEL. The latter was beaten only a nose at Newcastle last time with a subsequent winner back in fourth and can open his account. The remainder with experience are hard to fancy with the exception of Spiriting, who will have improved for a debut at Newmarket, while Firmament and Exact Science are other debutants to note.
