Showed up well when sixth of 18 at Newbury on debut. Failed to build on that in a Class 2 maiden at Ascot since but could fare better back in a lower grade.

Down the field but showed ability in warm maidens here (6f) and Glorious Goodwood. Sets a fair standard.

Forecasts

Great Balls O'Fire (6/4), One For Bruce (5/2), Walkin On The Moon (10/3), Sky Symphony (10/1), Silent Sadhu (16/1), Blue Fox (18/1), Scenic Blue (25/1)

Verdict

WALKIN ON THE MOON showed ability in a couple of warm maidens and he can make his experience count in what is probably a moderate novice for the track. Great Balls O'Fire makes most appeal of the newcomers but the market will offer clues.
