£120,000 Mehmas colt; ran to form 7 1/2l third in a maiden at Naas most recent run; effective 5f/6f, acts heavy, soft and good, with latter probably best for his action; remains a very useful sprint prospect.

Expert View Verdict
Only a couple bring previous experience to this small-field maiden, and neither have shown enough in their respective outings to suggest this can't go to the newcomers. Aidan O'Brien won this last year, and has two eye-catching debutants who could go well. GIANT SEQUOIA appears to be the first-string from Ballydoyle on jockey bookings, with Ryan Moore in the saddle, and the nicely-bred Frankel colt is likely to be thereabouts. Stablemate Aix La Chapelle is a well-related Justify colt, who is a half-brother to Henri Matisse, and has a big chance on debut based on pedigree. 360,000gns Wootton Bassett colt To Infinity is a contender on debut for Joseph O'Brien, which could make this contest a typical family affair between the top yards.
