Maiden Stakes | Hurdle | 2m 5f 122y
Byzantium
BYZANTIUM got back on the up on just his second start beyond 2m when landing a Warwick handicap in tidy fashion earlier in the month and looks capable of defying a penalty back in a novice with the step up in trip likely to suit. Kill The Groove and Golden Echo rate the principal threats in that order.

Showed more than previously when third on final start in bumpers and again showed something when filling same spot on recent hurdling debut at Market Rasen (18.6f), rally after conceding first run.

Modest Flat winner who shaped with some promise when making the frame first 2 starts over hurdles and might well have got the better of the sprint finish but for departing (brought down last) at Fontwell (17.7f) on most recent start.
