None of the quartet can be discounted but RAGING RAJ and Lake Como are open to most improvement, Jane Chapple Hyam's charge narrowly preferred in his bid for the hat-trick.

Found a chunk of improvement to win a 1m nursery at Kempton (doing well having met trouble) and progressed again to win a 7f nursery at this course (7.1f) with something in hand last month. Looks capable of landing the hat-trick.

Verdict
Well held sole start for Aidan O'Brien (sold for 16,000 gns) but shown much more for new yard, eye-catching second at Lingfield prior to finding more improvement to go one better in a 7f Newcastle novice last time. Back up in trip for nursery debut and sure to keep on improving.

Verdict
Saxon Warrior filly who improved when winning 10-runner novice at Newcastle (8f) and has backed it up with two solid runner-up finishes in nurseries, latest when chasing home a nursery debutante from top yard over C&D. Typically finds plenty for pressure and should give another good account.

Verdict
Ran his best raced visored for first time when second of 6 in nursery at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 7/2) 29 days ago, unable to sustain effort having raced freely. Entitled to be in the mix again if settling with headgear retained.
