The Queen's colt Fabricate is a half-brother to winners on the Flat and over jumps. Trademark, a son of Galileo, looks the pick of Sir Michael Stoute's two newcomers but experience can be crucial at this time of the year. MURGAN was very green in both starts last year but showed promise and this further step up in trip is going to suit Peter Chapple-Hyam's well-bred colt. He can make it third-time lucky ahead of the filly Duchess Of Marmite. Mr Cripps and Mr Singh were both third on debut and are open to improvement, though may need more time.
