Verdict
Masterpoint can be expected to have improved for his debut at Carlisle. He has a decent draw here and could prove hard to pass. Tamasuk, who showed he has a race in him when a close up third on his debut, will improve for the extra furlong. Leo Boy, an early foal, should be more forward than most, while other newcomers Convex, Dharkan and Border Tale, must be noted if the market speaks in their favour.
