15:00 Newmarket

Ebro River is the only Group 1 winner in the field but he ran poorly in France when last seen and might just need this first run back. If he does underperform then JUMBY (best price 5/1) looks great value to me at 5/1. This New Bay colt likes this track with 2 of his 4 career wins coming here and he impressed to follow up his Salisbury win over 7f here at the end of last season. He was given a confident ride on that occasion and came through strongly to pick them up. He drops back a furlong on his reappearance but is proven over C&D and if he gets a good target to aim at he should be finishing best under William Buick. I’m expecting him to have improved from 3 to 4 and with the likes of Last Crusader, Double Or Bubble, Bellosa and even Ebro River going forward this could set up perfectly. It wouldn’t surprise me if Garrus emerged as the main danger as if he gets it run to suit he is clearly very capable too.
