Race preview
Kodiac Thriller sets a reasonable standard and rates as the pick of those with previous experience. However, WALEEFY, who is a half-brother to both the mighty Baaeed and high-class Hukum among others, has a stellar pedigree and is hard to ignore given his illustrious relatives. William Haggas has a solid record with his newcomers and this son of Night Of Thunder is yet another highly appealing youngster to run for the Newmarket maestro. The betting market should be heeded where fellow debutants Hatadora and Turn Up The Heat are concerned.
