Verdict

GRIZZLE disappointed on a fast surface at Newmarket last time, but there was some ease in the ground when he was second on his debut, also at HQ. The Godolphin colt gets another chance here ahead of Signor Sassi. The latter has found only one too good on both starts and is another who should appreciate the likely slow ground. Be Calm and Sabhan showed glimpses of promise on their respective debts, but I'll Be Good has had plenty of chances and doesn't look any nearer to winning. Untold Melody is a half-sister to winning sprinter Mappin Time and is worth noting on her debut.
