An interesting novice. SKIMMER has had the form of his debut win boosted on a few occasions and might be up to defying a penalty but there are a few promising sorts against him, notably Crown Imperial who could leave the bare form of his Newbury debut in the spring behind. Sea of Kings and The Bellhop are others likely to have a say.
