2/1, won 7-runner maiden at Leicester (5f, good) on debut 35 days ago, well on top finish. Sure to improve, so merits plenty of respect despite the penalty.

Foaled February 24. £25,000 yearling, £160,000 2-y-o, Kessaar colt. Dam unraced out of unraced half-sister to Japanese St Leger winner That's The Plenty. Obvious claims.

Forecasts

Sunny Orange (6/5), Silencer (11/5), Lulworth Cove (5/1), Papabella (7/1), Rocking Ends (20/1)

SILENCER was picked up by top connections for a six-figures sum at the Breeze-Ups and should be well readied for this debut, so he gets the marginal vote over Sunny Orange, who justified support in comfortable fashion on debut at Leicester in April. Pababella is also considered.
