Verdict
Hard Forest failed to build on an earlier effort at Newmarket when disappointing at Yarmouth last time and COSMIC LAW is preferred. He showed some ability at Doncaster on his debut, despite not getting the best of runs, and Richard Fahey’s colt can go close with normal progress. True Mason is another likely improver with Flint Hill preferred of the newcomers given his trainer’s good strike rate with two-year-old runners here.
