Verdict
Grey Sensation was still beaten five lengths despite making the frame at Catterick and Sir Chauvelin failed to show any improvement on his latest start at Ayr. Yorkie Talkie finished last of 10 on his debut so it would be no surprise if one of the newcomers proved good enough. Mr Cool Cash and Silver Tycoon, a half-brother to four winners, are worth a second glance but YEENAAN has made the journey up from Newmarket and it's Marco Botti's colt that gets the vote to make a winning start.
