4/1

Promising individual. Won 9-runner maiden (6/1) at Southwell (7.1f) on debut 15 days ago. Should improve further, so not discounted despite a penalty and wide draw.

Forecasts

King Of Time (11/8), Ludus (7/2), Borgi (4/1), Sea The Sunset (4/1), Makarova (6/1), Combat Style (12/1), Got Carter (20/1), Pearl Reef (40/1), Prime Objective (40/1), My Lovely Sylv (50/1), Shifter (100/1), Ravi Road (125/1)

KING OF TIME makes plenty of appeal on paper and should be forward enough to make a successful start in a race where the bar isn't set all that high by those with experience. Ludus and Sea The Sunset are both likely to benefit from the experience of their respective debuts, so they're both worth considering.
