Verdict
A couple of these stand out. Story Minister showed ability on his debut when third at Doncaster and should figure but UNFORTUNATELY is just preferred. The latter finished behind a subsequent winner when fifth at Newmarket on his introduction and Karl Burke’s colt should find this easier. Marnie James and Armed Response could figure with normal progress while Crown Of Cortez and Jive Lady, a sister to smart Listed sprinter Windfast, make most appeal of the newcomers.
