85,000 gns half-brother to 5f-1m winner Honourable; looked green before rattling home fast on debut at Redcar (6f, good; 18-1) last month (Exalted Leader fourth) and rates the one to beat on that evidence with improvement likely.

Forecasts

Bergerac (2/1), Twilight Prince (2/1), Exalted Leader (6/1), Footstepstothehart (7/1), Cometh The Man (7/1), Tommy Tittlemouse (9/1), Jianzi (16/1), Harswell Princess (25/1), Spartakos (33/1)

Verdict

It took TWILIGHT PRINCE a while to get the message on debut at Redcar but Richard Fahey's charge was flying home late and would only have needed another stride to get up. That race looks reliable in this context and he can confirm form with Exalted Leader (fourth) to get on the board now. Bergerac should improve for his debut third over C&D and is a threat, while newcomers Cometh The Man, Harswell Princess and Jianzi need monitoring in the market.
