This doesn’t look as strong as the first division with Regular probably setting the standard on his second at Redcar, though Forest Of Dean is also a likely improver and Motawaj has shown some ability in both starts date. DEREVO is by Dansili and the first foal of a Listed winner also owned by Khalid Abdulla. He wouldn’t need to be a world-beater to make a winning start. Nassam is a brother to a winning miler but has already been gelded and is in the sales next month.
