No Way Jose sets the form standard but it's been noticeable in these novice contests that previous winners find it hard to win under penalties. Dawn Affair improved considerably from her first start when runner-up at Windsor but it would not surprise were this to fall to a newcomer. Jeremy Noseda has an excellent strike rate and his representative, Quasar, has an all-American pedigree and should noted in the market. Mulan makes obvious appeal as a daughter of Kingman out of a Zafonic mare but we'll go along with MUBTASIMAH to round off a good week for William Haggas as the daughter of Dark Angel should be ideally suited to trip and ground.
