Verdict
The most obvious selection would be the Zafonic colt On Edge, who will be partnered by the globe-trotting Frankie Dettori. However the odds are likely to be cramped, even though he is yet to achieve anything. Shakran steps up considerably on his only outing so far but remains an interesting prospect all the same. As does Transit who should appreciate being upped in trip. However, a move for any of the other newcomers should be noted carefully and could well pay dividends if On Edge fails to deliver.
