This can go the way of DUBLIN FOUR, who proved better than ever to make a winning start for Fergal O'Brien at Newbury last month. He was value for more than the 1½ length-winning margin that day, and with this step back up in trip aiding his cause, he looks sure to feature again. The Newest One doubled his tally in a weak handicap at Doncaster last month so he's feared most, ahead of Smarty Wild.
