7/4

Son of Coulsty who was coltish beforehand but shaped with definite promise when fourth in 15-runner Brocklesby at Doncaster 17 days ago, doing best of those who raced close up. Sure to have derived plenty from that and definite claims here.

ATHERSTONE WARRIOR was coltish in the preliminaries but still fared best of those ridden close-up when fourth on debut in the Brocklesby at Doncaster and he could be worth siding with to build on that. Karl Burke's juveniles always command respect and his appealing newcomer Arabie is of strong interest. Dukes of Haather, an encouraging seventh himself in the Brocklesby, is another likely improver.
