Needs to learn to settle better and the fact he's dropped into a maiden when he's now eligible for a handicap wouldn't be a big confidence boost for his backers.
Ran okay in an AW bumper at Lingfield. Drop back in trip looks a smart move after he traveled well for a long way that day. Any market moves may prove significant but hard to have full confidence behind.
Showed very little in two starts to date and can enter handicaps after this so others preferred.
Forecasts
The Blues Master (4/9), Burning Heat (9/2), Tambour (6/1), Condamine (16/1), Nothing Compares (50/1), Seaborn (66/1), Gog Elles (100/1)
THE BLUES MASTER has shown a good enough level of form to take this and he seems to be progressing steadily. French recruit Burning Heat may be able to grab a place if he can build on his UK debut last time out and any market support for Tambour should be noted for shrewd connections.
1. The Blues Master
