Verdict
An unlucky loser on his nursery debut at Thirsk last week, CALAFIORI is taken to gain compensation off the same mark here. The only caveat is that this will be his first run away from turf, but it's a pretty small caveat all things considered and his claims are otherwise very compelling. It's reasonable to expect that Henrythenate and Campenaerts will both be seen in a better light now pitched into a nursery and they are feared most in that order of preference.

VerdictLightly-raced maiden. 11/4, very good second of 6 in nursery at Thirsk (5f, good) 7 days ago. Will prove a tough nut to crack off the same mark here, provided he takes to this surface (raced exclusively on turf thus far). - 4. HenrythenateJ: Stevie DonohoeT: Charlie FellowesF: 6346

VerdictLightly-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in maiden at Carlisle (5f, soft, 9/1) 27 days ago. Hasn't made any real progress so far, but that could be about to change now that his attention is switched to nurseries. - 1. CampenaertsJ: Luke MorrisT: Archie WatsonF: 644

VerdictThrice-raced maiden. Fourth of 7 in novice (6/1) at Bath (5.7f, firm) 27 days ago, running on. Gelded ahead of this handicap debut and while improvement is certainly needed, it may well be forthcoming.

VerdictLightly-raced maiden. 25/1, fourth of 5 in novice at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Doesn't appeal as being potentially well treated now pitched into a nursery on this AW debut.

VerdictThrice-raced maiden. Third of 9 in maiden at this C&D (15/2) 22 days ago. Will need to settle better now trying her hand in a nursery if she's to emerge on top.- Unnamed Favourite
