Pageant Master just failed to hold on over this trip on Tapeta at Newcastle on his nursery debut and would be an obvious contender if transferring that improvement to Turf. Anandita has only run on artificial surfaces and ran her best race to date when tackling this trip for the first time at Kempton. Hatha had shown potential in novice company and started favourite for a Wolverhampton nursery but didn't take to the surface. She can do better while In The Cove makes his handicap debut on a very lowly mark. Diviner won two novices' contests in the spring over the minimum but has been well beaten in nurseries. Strawberry Jack ran well in a lucrative sales race at Newmarket last week but a chance is taken with HYPNOS, who has shown glimpses of ability and his pedigree suggests he should do better.
