Ran with some promise on debut here over 7f before fading badly and ending up tailed off last here over 1m. Plenty of question marks now, not least the longer trip.
12,000gns yearling by Medicean is half-brother to classy Muffri'Ha and two other winners. Sire imparts stamina generally so trip no concern on debut and leading jockey booked so market best guide to expectations.
Maiden has won over £70,000 in prize money largely thanks to second in valuable sales race two years ago. Missed entire three-year old season but good form in maidens lately including C&D second last time out. Ought to be up to race like this.
New Approach debutant is a half-sister to a useful 7f winner out of an Australian 1m2f Group One winner. Attractive enough pedigree but jockey bookings suggest stable second string.
Best effort to date in a handicap here last month when a close third over C&D. Rated 10lb inferior to Clear Skies so plenty to do although she may end up the main danger.
Forecasts
Clear Skies (1/1), Vienna Circle (7/4), Play It Cool (11/2), Amuletum (16/1), Perfect Tapatino (33/1)
This looks an excellent opportunity for CLEAR SKIES unless one of the belated debut makers is very useful. She is Aidan O'Brien's only runner tonight and should win this. Vienna Circle has achieved enough to have some chance while of the debutants Amuletum has the more likable pedigree.
