The vote goes to STARDANCER, who stepped up on his debut when chasing home a potentially decent type from the Crisford yard over this C&D recently and he should continue to improve with experience. Newcomer Rebel's Gamble makes plenty of appeal on paper and it will be an ominous sign for the others if he's strong in the betting, while Coul Angel and Invincible Melody should both build on their encouraging debuts.
