Verdict
With only one of these two-year-olds having seen a racecourse before, the market should be the best guide. Tadleel does carry the same colours as last year’s winner but made only an ordinary debut at Newbury. DUKHAN cost 260,000 euros and is a half-brother to a 1m2f winner so this trip shouldn’t be a problem and he can get off to a winning start. Letsbe Avenue is a related to a host of winners but Timmy Murphy is an unusual booking for the Lawman colt. Jack Regan’s dam has produced winners with all of her offspring to race so he’s preferred to stablemate Metatrons Cube and sprint-bred filly Queen Adelaide.
