Verdict
Frenchy Du Large found only one too good in both starts last season but the form was nothing special. Doin'whatshelikes has placed in a point and joined the Nicholls yard while Hey Joe and Fly Number One are both by leading NH sire Oscar. The latter’s stable had a big-priced winner in a bumper at Warwick earlier this week. Stablemates Zhiguli and Sopran Thor are more speedily bred but the interesting one is CAPE MILANO. By Milan, he’s related to a host of winning jumpers and cost €52,000 last year.
