J: Laura Pearson

T: David Menuisier

Goes beyond an extended 1m2f for the first time and there's a concern regarding whether he'll settle, which didn't happen at Sandown last time; however, two starts ago he was held up there (1m2f, good) and stayed on well for third, and on that evidence he has potential at this new trip provided he's amenable to restraint; pedigree bodes well for soft ground.

All three starts this term were at about 1m2f on good, unraced on firmer; won handicap debut at Goodwood in May; disappointing favourite at York (failed to settle early on) next time but better from off the pace when third of 12 off this mark over C&D three weeks ago, in a tight finish for second with Akho Mezzna and Tambora; each-way contender again for in-form yard.

Narrowly made a successful reappearance/handicap debut over C&D (good) early last month, but proved a disappointing favourite at York (1m2f, good) last time; needs to bounce back, but the return to Sandown may help.

Fair form when third at Chelmsford (7f, AW) and second of eight with cheekpieces fitted at Pontefract (6f, soft); hung on both starts and carried his head high, so may again be looking at minor honours at best.

Off the mark in a five-runner Nottingham novice (1m2f, good to firm) last month and probably put up an even better effort when second of nine back in a handicap at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) 15 days ago; return to a more galloping track should suit and one of the likelier winners.

Modest form when down the field at Kempton (1m, AW) in October and she was beaten 16l on her Lingfield reappearance (11-2) last month; still early days but she has a lot to find here and handicaps will be more suitable.

Verdict

Ten are newcomers, arguably headed on paper by Mythical Valentine. The four who have run do not set a high standard but BRIDGE OF EAGLES is tentatively preferred to Guesstimate in that group. The market moves should give big clues.[Richard Austen]
