Verdict
Unilit failed to back up a promising debut when narrowly repelled at Bath when only seventh of ten in the Thirsk maiden won by Richter Scale whereas SAHREEJ has produced two runs that make him the one to beat for the in-form Charles Hills team. A pleasing Newmarket debut was followed by a solid runner-up effort at Ripon when well clear of the third. That combination of form and experience should see him off the mark. Andrew Balding enjoys a good record at this track and supplies the likeliest of the newcomers in Husbandry, a son of Paco Boy. Go Marnie appeals more as a nursery type.
