Newmarket Race 1 - Nags Head Cutting British Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
GREAT BALLS O'FIRE (2) makes his debut from a useful family with his dam having produced Group 3-placed Flash Gordon. Too Darn Hot's progeny continue to excel and he sets the standard among the newcomers. ONE FOR BRUCE (3) finished fourth on debut at Thirsk six days ago and is a half-brother to Group 3 Solario Stakes winner and Group 1 runner-up South Seas. Main danger. WALKIN ON THE MOON (7) has twice shaped as though experience was needed and was only 7L away in a strong Goodwood maiden last time. Makes some appeal. BLUE FOX (1) is out of a half-sister to Group 2 winner Loxley from the family of Prix de l'Opera winner Lady Marian. Not discounted.
