Verdict
CASPAR THE CUB went close at Wolverhampton on his earlier debut and wasn’t disgraced when third at Kempton given the runner-up is rated 102. He meets nothing of that calibre in this and can open his account. Royal Goldie and Illustrious Spirit are likely improvers of the remainder with racecourse experience but a newcomer may prove a bigger danger. Of those, Andrew Balding runs two with Shailene a half-sister to four winners and preferred to stable companion Oenophile and also Blistering Bob.
