The market should tell us more here, but a tentative vote goes to Global Guest over the likes of Surrey Spinner, Golden Balls and Thousand Words to name but a few. One thing we can be sure of is that Mick Channon always has them ready, and judged by his recent work on the Lambourn gallops, Global Guest should make his presence felt in what could turn out to be an informative affair with an eye to the future. The son of Piccolo is down for the Weatherbys Super Sprint next month and can justify that entry with a prominent showing today. Surrey Spinner is related to Oases who was placed in Listed company as a three-year-old and has the assistance of Kieren Fallon, while Golden Balls cost 100,000gns and is entered for a couple of big sales races later this year. Thousand Words is bred to want a mile really but is another from a top stable, so is dangerous to dismiss, but in what is a guessing game in truth, Global Guest is the pick.
