First-time blinkers had no impact at Kenilworth last month when beaten 6l (fifth of ten) in a maiden plate; shown he can be competitive fairly recently and has to be taken seriously.

Verdict

A tricky puzzle to solve but the selection is QUIET PLACE. He was behind I Am Sam last time but can now reverse placings. O'fellow is capable of running well.
