Verdict
BUBBLY BELLINI, Lean Machine and Boycott head a wide open maiden, with Bubbly Bellini taken to maintain the promise he showed last time. The selection was outpaced at Headquarters on debut, but ran with a lot of promise when a close fourth behind a Royal Ascot runner next time. He seems to be progressing well and can put his experience to good use against a field mainly made up of debutants. Richard Hannon has carried all before him in the juvenile sphere, and his Lean Machine could be speedy, being a half-brother to three winners, and out of a winning sprinting dam. He can go well. A half-brother to Art Connoisseur, Boycott hails from the John Gosden camp who are winnerless at this age group to date and he is best watched. Bubbly Bellini can spark the celebrations.
