Verdict

Having attracted support, SILENT MOVE was slowly away then immediately hampered at York on his debut, so he can leave that effort well behind to get off the mark at the second attempt. Deimos makes plenty of appeal on paper and could be the main danger, ahead of Foreign Exchange.

  1. SILENT MOVE
  2. DEIMOS (IRE)
  3. FOREIGN EXCHANGE
