In depth
Verdict
Jaaneh makes his all-weather debut after a couple of modest performances on Turf. He must have some sort of chance in a weak-looking maiden but Giovanni Tiepolo and Good Earth already look exposed. BREAKFAST CLUB changed hands for £200,000 last year so connections will be aiming higher than a Class 5 maiden on Polytrack, though this is probably a good stepping stone for the Cable Bay colt.
