Cheap purchase who is related to several winners and he offered something to work on when fifth in a C&D novice on debut 25 days ago, denied a run over 2f out but keeping on under hands-and-heels ride. May do better.

Well backed up against one that set a fair standard and he showed plenty to work on when second in 3-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 2 weeks ago, no extra only late on. Can build on that here.

€120,000 purchase who was green but he showed definite ability when second of 6 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 3 weeks ago. Represents top stable and no surprise to see him take a sizeable step forward.

Analyst's Verdict

Well-bred Godolphin colt STARGLOW showed definite promise amidst obvious greenness when second on debut at Wolverhampton 3 weeks ago. Sure to have derived plenty from that initial experience, he can get off the mark at the second attempt. Showcasing Star is another likely improver following a promising debut effort, whilst Archie Watson's Wareeth is an interesting newcomer.

Betting Forecast : 11/102.1 Starglow, 7/24.5 Wareeth, 4/15 Showcasing Star, 22/123 Haltonwood, 28/129 Balmoral Boy, 33/134 Thunder Rush, 33/134 The Bitters, 50/151 The Floors Munky
