Granted suitable conditions (probably wouldn't want ground slower than good to soft), TALIS EVOLVERE may well deliver now eased in grade with highly promising and in-form apprentice Toby Moore doing the steering. He pulled clear of the rest when chasing home a progressive 3-y-o from the William Haggas yard at Haydock last time and a reproduction of that would probably suffice. Irish raider Dragon of Malta is next on the list, while Flag of St George is one of several others to consider.
