The one who appeals most is NO QUESTIONS ASKED, who was sure-footed when making a winning start in this sphere over C&D last month. He subsequently improved when runner-up in what was probably a strong renewal of the 2½m John Francome at Newbury, looking for all the world that he would go on to win that Grade 2 when easing to the front at the third-last before being essentially outstayed by the winner. Steel Ally and Jax Junior are similarly promising types and are feared most in that order.
