A double penalty obviously gives THEMAXWECAN the hardest task he’s faced so far but his form so far has a solid look to it and he’s very much the type the stable excel with as he steps up in trip. Landa Beach made the perfect start to his career and with the Balding team in good form (9-29 last 14 days) he’s an obvious threat tackling a new trip but with improvement left in him. Technician and Fox Fearless are two others that have made an impression so far although the former is starting to look exposed, maybe a change of yard will eke out some progress. The pick of the newcomers looks to be Future Investment; judged on his pedigree he should relish this trip.
