In depth
Verdict
HUTTON made a promising start without threatening the winner when second at Wolverhampton on his debut. He may be good enough to get the better of the Prescott filly Mockinbird, third over 6f at Kempton on her introduction. The above pair are preferred to Santiburi Spring and You're A Goat, who both finished closer on their latest starts, but Silk Gem failed to show any progress when last of nine here recently.
