1/1

Lightly-raced colt who took a step forward when runner-up (clear of rest) in a Lingfield nursery in August. Filled same spot in a stronger race at Ascot (7f) since and looks the one to beat.

Forecasts

Sunningdale (1/1), Little Edi (2/1), True Statesman (9/2), Family Ties (12/1)

SUNNINGDALE has shown much improved form since switching to nurseries and this looks a good opportunity for him to get off the mark. Little Edi is feared most.
