Verdict

GREAT BALLS O'FIRE picked up in taking fashion once he realised what was required when making a winning debut on the July course last month and with further improvement on the cards, he's taken to handle this marked step up in class in his stride for connections who can seemingly do no wrong. Mezzo Forte impressed when scoring at York recently, so he heads up the threats, with Varzi and Fuel The Jet taken to fight out minor honours.

5	Wootton Bassett colt who was much sharper 11 weeks on from his debut and also proved well suited by the longer trip when winning 11-runner maiden at York (7f, good) earlier in the month. Will go on improving so warrants considerable respect upped in grade with Moore taking over. 2nd Pick 5 Mezzo Forte (Ire) Jockey: Ryan Moore Trainer: William Haggas J: Ryan Moore T: William Haggas	95	-	-	-	36%	9/5

9	Bumped into subsequent Coventry Stakes fourth at York (5f) on debut in May before confirming that promise to land the odds in a 5-runner novice at Pontefract (6f, good) last month. Took his form up another notch when fifth of 9 in listed event at Doncaster recently so he's one to consider. 3rd Pick 9 Varzi (Ire) Jockey: Pierre-Louis Jamin Trainer: K. R.
