33/1
Looked green but offered something to work on when fourth at Nottingham (10.2f) on debut in September. Ran to only a similar level at Kempton but remains with potential.

Much improved from debut when neck second of 9 in maiden (2/1) at Newbury (8f, good) 32 days ago. Sets a useful standard on that form and surely more to come now stepping up in trip.

Forecasts

Counsel (5/6), Diavolo (15/8), Our New Buddy (15/2), Ensured (16/1), Monbaher (25/1), La Hulotte (33/1), Onenightinmiami (40/1), Only Debris (200/1)

Verdict

COUNSEL sets a useful standard and potentially has more to come now stepping up in trip, so unless Roger Varian's choicely-bred newcomer Diavolo turns out to be well above average, he should prove hard to beat.

  1. COUNSEL
  2. DIAVOLO (IRE)
