Left debut form well behind despite still being very green when third in soft-ground Salisbury novice 3 weeks ago, very slowly away and pulling hard. Clearly has more to offer still.

Fair form in maidens and not disgraced on nursery bow at York 2 weeks ago. Just about sets the standard but may prove vulnerable.

Forecasts

Bushfire (9/4), Postmark (3/1), Hapap (11/2), Ve Day (7/1), Balgowan (15/2), My Mate Ted (10/1), Tying The Knot (10/1), Mambo Beat (12/1), Shorts On (14/1), The Residencies (100/1)

Verdict

TYING THE KNOT left his debut well behind when third in a decent heavy-ground Sandown novice last month and gets the vote facing similar conditions this afternoon. Bushfire was still very green despite showing marked improvement when third at Salisbury so clearly has a bigger performance in him, while Postmark, VE Day and Balgowan are all newcomers to note.
