Darkest Red

8st 12lb

J: Callum Hutchinson

T: Jim Boyle

A maiden after nine starts but close second three consecutive times (1m2f-11.5f) since upped to middle-distance trips in April; proven on fast ground and seems very likely to be in the shake-up again.

Gradually getting there, beaten under a length here (1m2f, good) in April and going down by a short head in a 14-runner event at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) last month, finishing nicely clear of the rest; up 4lb, but still looks the one to beat.

9st 6lb

J: Paddy Bradley

T: Jim Boyle

Suited by the step up to 1m2f back on turf when one of three to come away off a 2lb lower mark at Yarmouth late last month; bit unlucky not to go closer still there and is on the shortlist.

9st 9lb

J: Pat Cosgrave

T: Jim Boyle

Gelded after last season and was only 9-2 for his reappearance in a 1m handicap at Lingfield (AW) where he was running on after a wide trip; raised in distance and the dam stayed this far; respected.

Said to have never travelled when among the favourites for a Kempton nursery that's produced winners, when last seen seven months ago; gelded since; market useful.
