In depth
Verdict
Pincheck made a reasonable debut at Haydock but didn't appear to enjoy the softer ground at Nottingham. Original Choice is another who looked better suited by fast conditions on his debut at Newmarket, though dropping back to 6f at Newbury didn't turn out to be the best option. Godolphin won this last year and the Dubawi colt Game Starter is one to note as is Power Power, a half-brother to a couple of winners. PEACEFUL PASSAGE is a half-sister to four winners, including two at pattern race level in the USA. This doesn't look the most difficult of starts and she can make a successful debut.
