The form of Sobraon's debut run has worked out quite well and, as such, he is selected in a tricky finale to the card at Carlisle. Vitteli, Hello Baby and Loscar appeal as the best out of those with previous experience - while Elverys and Mapilut Du Moulin both hail from very shrewd yards and are worth monitoring for signs of support as they make their first visits to a racecourse today. However, Sobaron was no knocked about on his debut run but still shaped with plenty of promise as he stayed on through beaten horse in the closing stages. That experience will have taught Nicky Richards' charge plenty about what is required of him on a racecourse so, with that valuable experience to call upon, Sobaron looks the safest option to round off with a winner here.
