In depth

Verdict

Lordman was very green on debut and may need more time but Shabano appears to be improving with experience. ENKINDLE is a New Approach colt out of a mare that won four times over 7f. He is likely to know his job so gets the nod over fellow newcomer Beautiful Surprise, who is a half-sister to the stable’s winning miler Surprise Picture. Psychic Change was a cheap purchase and Just An Inkling will probably make a better three-year-old.
