OLYMPUS POINT is bred in the purple and shaped with plenty of promise when going down fighting to a stablemate boasting experience in a C&D novice at the beginning of the month. Sure to improve, he can put that experience to good use and make it second time lucky. Newcomers Sherlock and Methgal appeal as likely types and head up the dangers before market clues.
