Verdict
Salisbury fifth Berlin Tango is a likely improver but ITKAANN may be the one with most potential among these. A half-brother to numerous winners, he only weakened inside the final furlong when easy to back in what looked a competitive novice event at Leicester last month. Ralph Beckett’s Arabian Moon is the first foal to race of a 6f winner and one to note in betting exchanges and Kings Creek is also well related.
