Formscan  - Romanza emerged from the Chesham with credit in seventh and then hit the crossbar at Lingfield. He was only a position and just over a length in front of APULIA BAY, though, and considering that was the Crisfords' youngster's first taste of competitive action, he can improve past his rival. Vega King shaped with promise behind three experienced opponents at Ayr and should step forward. Giant Dan Burn is the newcomer this time, but he cost 140,000 euros as a yearling so must not be dismissed lightly.
