In depth

Verdict

New comers from the Stoute stable Orange Stravinsky, Juror look interesting but so do Dunelight and Genre with the vote going to the last named. Genre has had two runs to date and improved from his debut to finish third of sixteen at Salisbury. If he is able to step up one more gear he will go very close. Dunelight ran a blinder at Newbury on his debut and now having had that experience under his belt has to be respected but how many times have we seen a two year old run well on his debut only to disappoint on their next start and is therefore one to treat with caution. Of the Stoute newcomers Orange Stravinsky looks the most likely on breeding but both he and stable companion Juror are worth noting in the market for betting clues. But for the winner we return to Genre.
