Verdict
Taysh is related to winners in North America and cost 170,000gns. Khafayya is another newcomer to note along with Castle Talbot, a 180,000 euros purchase and a half-brother to a Listed winner. But it could pay to stick with BLEU ASTRAL given he made a promising start when second at Thirsk to subsequent valuable sales race winner Secret Brief. Capel Path looks next best of those with experience after outings at Newmarket and Sandown last time.
