An interesting bumper with several making appeal, including HISTRIONIC. A €450,000 purchase who tasted success on his only start between the flags, he makes plenty of appeal starting out for the Paul Nicholls yard and can make his presence felt. Of those with experience, Navajo Indy and Highlands Legacy are worthy of note. Groovy Blue and Guard The Moon also demand a market check.
