FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Course form from Pretty Polly Day nearly three weeks back is put to the test by Shark Bay and Manu Et Corde in the opener. They finished third and fifth respectively behind Atomic Jones on that occasion in a seven furlong maiden, and seventh of the nine on there was SHINKANSEN. Up in trip then, the Caravaggio colt wasn’t beaten far at all that afternoon. Dropped to six furlongs for this assignment looks a good move with Shinkansen, and if the addition of a tongue-strap brings him forward, even a little, then the grey looks the one to be with. Windsor Castle eleventh placer, Admiral D is respected, along with the likes of Threebagsfull, Cherry Bloom and Jarvis.
