Signs of ability in three starts in novice contests. Drop back to 5f looks likely to suit on handicap debut and market support would be interesting on this occasion.

Forecasts

Grey Galleon (7/4), Spin Top (10/3), Look Surprised (4/1), Staffa (13/2), Harrison Stickle (7/1), Frank Cool (10/1), Wotadoll (11/1), Sandfrankskipsgo (12/1), United Kingdom (12/1), Powerful Dream (14/1), Ghepardo (20/1), Taurean Gold (66/1)

HARRISON STICKLE has tarted this season well and he can take the final race on the card. The selection was a winner off a 6lb lower mark last time out and can follow up that success at the chief expense of Spin Top who was successful on the AW on his most recent appearance. Look Surprised is likely to track the early pace and she can follow up her recent with victory with a third on this occasion.
