Verdict
Dean Swift didn't show a great deal on his reappearance at Thirsk, while last month's Leicester third Hayaku is beginning to look a little exposed. There are possibilities about Midnight Moon, however, who didn't appear to last home over 1m4f at Newmarket last month. Knightly Escapade is also open to improvement but may need this so preference is for FRUEHLING. Sir Michael Stoute's was beaten nine lengths when third on his debut at Newmarket but was given a very gentle introduction and is expected to be much more the finished article here.
