Both Balladeer and the recent 7f Musselburgh winner Smile A Mile merit plenty of respect and will almost certainly prove capable of winning more races, with the latter appearing to hold all of the key characteristics of a typical Mark Johnston-trained improver. However, it is the top-weighted MIGRATION who boasts the strongest form credentials based upon his fast-finishing second to Masaru in the Class 2 Esher Cup (Sandown). He is strongly fancied to make short work of his subsequent 4lb rise in the weights by striking on his fifth career start.
