Encourage finished fourth at Newbury on his debut and this quicker ground and longer trip may bring improvement while Lightening Shore placed over 7f here and is another to consider. But the newcomer ACT OF WISDOM cost 1.1m gns as a full brother to a couple of winners including Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf winner Line Of Duty, also trained by Charlie Appleby, and the Godolphin colt may prove good enough on his introduction. Great King is a £460,000 half-brother to winners while Haajoos is another to note for the Gosden yard.
