Fairly useful form when placed 5 times in maidens in Ireland (7f-9f) for Aidan O'Brien this year. Should figure on yard debut.

Dark Angel gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including winner up to 7f Top Score and 1m winner Castle Lady, both smart. Very interesting to see how he compares in betting to stablemate Warm Smile.

Forecasts

Screaming Petrus (6/4), Warm Smile (13/8), Lost Gold (9/2), Handel (17/2), Serena's Symphony (16/1), King Creole (25/1), Eternal Light (40/1), Al Muhaajir (50/1), Early Morning Dew (125/1)

Verdict

An interesting race. SCREAMING PETRUS shaped very well on his C&D debut last month and gets the nod but Warm Smile also showed significant promise on her debut and is likely to be winning soon, while Handel brings some fairly useful form from Ireland. Lost Gold is a newcomer to note in the betting.
