In depth

Verdict

A handful of these have decent claims in a competitive maiden. Courageous Rock is rated 5lb higher than Mawaseel and could make that tell as he steps up in distance. Absolute Sway and Sagua La Grande were both spotted staying on well over 1m2f on their respective debuts while Perspicace is looking to make amends having returned a losing favourite at Yarmouth last time. Sarpech should have come on for his seasonal debut but CLEAR MND gets the nod having finished behind a subsequent winner when third over today's trip at Newmarket on her debut.
