Only a modest level of ability in three starts to date and probably flattered by finishing position at Newcastle on second start. Trainer and jockey have a fine strike rate when teaming up at this course though (21.37%)
Blew the start but still finished second on debut at Lingfield. However, they no doubt went too fast on the front end there and he could be flattered by that form. Shouldn't be far away in as weak a race as this.
Cost a small fortune as a yearling (€720,000) but sold cheaply without running in November. Related to some winners but didn't show enough on debut to be forwarded for win purposes.
SPECIALIST will know plenty more for his debut effort and could be tough to pass if he gets an easy lead from his pea draw (1). The form of Fulham's race has been franked in a minor way with the third finishing runner-up in a small field affair since while Pinnata cost enough money as a yearling to suggest there's some ability in there somewhere, despite a disappointing debut.
