ERUDITION is a real scopey sort who improved on his debut form despite still looking a work in progress when second in a Newbury maiden 12 days ago. Very much the type to go on progressing, he can prove too strong for Makerstoun, who has a race of this nature within his grasp judged on his recent third in a C&D novice. Distant Moon and debut scorer Khaleejy complete the shortlist.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: Distant Moon might not get things all its own way near the head of affairs but shouldn’t be held back by that alone: Slalom might not benefit from being ridden as far back as usual for all the gallop is likely to be a reasonable one.
Individual Price Hint: Makerstoun traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 25% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 2 starts: Mmmbop traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 25% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 2 starts.
