5/1
Churchill colt. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Justified support in the betting despite having a lot to learn when winning 4-runner novice event (6/4) at Southwell (5f) on debut 10 days ago, finding plenty when it mattered. Penalised for that but has more to offer.

Study of Man colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 5f winners Yorkshire Terrier and Out In Yorkshire. Couldn't justify the support but showed ability when third of 6 in maiden at Chelmsford City (5f, 11/10) on debut 23 days ago. May well do better.

Forecasts

Anthropologist (11/8), Do It Now (10/3), Barrak (5/1), Winchurch (5/1), Teej A (5/1), Station X (10/1)

Verdict

DO IT NOW came clear with the winner in a style that suggests he'll be winning before too long so gets the vote over Winchurch, who justified support at Southwell but shoulders a 5 lb penalty.
