A competitive maiden gets proceedings under way and the market may prove the best guide as to what is expected of the newcomers but they will have to be above average to defeat Skyharbour. The colt from the Dandy Nicholls yard was a good fourth on his debut at Chester behind Lady Piste. He is sure to come on for the run and will be hard to beat with conditions again in his favour. Lake Garda is a well bred sort from a yard that is able to ready a newcomer and is worth a cautionary look in the market. Argent showed plenty of pace when third over course and distance behind Birikina and is another that is sure to improve. Military Two Step is another who should improve but he gave the impression he would be suited by further when a staying on fourth behind Parkview Love. of the remainder Blue Moon Hitman is from a yard that is doing well with its two year olds and he has a pedigree full of speed.
