Went about the task in a professional manner to make a winning debut at Carlise earlier this month - stayed on powerfully enough to suggest he's got plenty more to offer. Looks the one to beat on that evidence.

7/1
Arguably bred to be more effective on an artificial surface and slightly off-putting that he's already undergone wind surgery before this racecourse debut. Yard going well, so still worth a cautionary check in the betting.

Cost 60,000 gns and put in a solid stint when introduced in a Goodwood maiden last month. Rallied when asked for an effort in the closing stages on that occasion and will be wiser this time around. Worth considering.

Struggled in two similar contests so far and makes very limited appeal after finishing last of ten runners at Leicester when last seen out. Possible she had an excuse for that run but still looks risky here.

Never competitive on debut at Redcar last month and was soon tailed off. Should have benefitted from the experience but almost impossible to recommend given the way she was left behind when the tempo increased in the north east.

Verdict

Trainer Mark Johnston has a trusted method of getting the best out of his stayers and looks to have another progressive type on his hands in the form of HIBERNICUS, who breezed to victory on debut at Carlisle earlier this month. A son of the mighty Sea The Stars, Johnston's colt got the trip well on that occasion and looks the sort to thrive on being kept busy. Mobham got going late in the day on his introduction and, as he gets weight from his main rival, ought to be capable of making the selection aware of his presence, while Charlie D won't need to be anything out of the ordinary to hold the rest at bay and prove himself to be best of the remainder
  1. Hibernicus
