Verdict

MUY BIEN caught the eye from an unpromising position in a course maiden last month, and is very much bred to be suited by this step up in trip now handicapping, so he's an appealing candidate with improvement on the cards. Sidewaysinmilan shaped better than distance beaten suggests on his first try in a handicap at Huntingdon and remains unexposed, with Kalzari another to consider.
