        Verdict

        AWSAAF didn’t handle the bend at Wolverhampton too well but that can be put down to inexperience. He still beat the race-fit Our Man In Havana by more than two lengths and can defy his penalty with his yard in cracking form. Quayside and Carouse are likely improvers while Footsteps Forever is a half-sister to the stable’s middle-distance winner Novancia and looks the pick of the newcomers.
