T: Charlie Appleby

Record is only 1-6 but he's consistent on bare figures and has two pieces of Group 3 form, last time fourth of five (not disgraced) in a Chester Vase won by the the colt who is now Derby favourite; possibilities, provided he takes well to first-time cheekpieces.

9st 2lb

J: William Buick

T: Charlie Appleby

Derby entry; progressive as 2yo (hooded three times) while always finding one or two too good for him, in the last instance when third behind two Aidan O'Brien-trained colts in Group 3 at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm); it's unlikely he had to reproduce that form when seeing off a newcomer by half a length in novice at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) on reappearance, at 4-7; not the most exciting on that evidence but likely to relish this extra distance.

Beaten favourite in three 1m novice/maiden runs but showed high level of ability; improved for the step up to 1m2f when finishing third of eight in the Group 3 Zetland Stakes at Newmarket when last seen; should have no difficulty winning a novice and he sets a high standard for his rivals to aim at.

9st 4lb

J: Billy Loughnane

T: Charlie Appleby

Two seconds and a third from his three starts, short-priced favourite in them all; best form when beaten a head by a last-ditch rally in maiden here (1m, good) last time; twice slowly away, including that day when he also raced freely; wore a hood for first two races and it's back today; he has plenty of ability and is bred to stay but yet to get his act together.

T: Charlie Appleby

850,000euros yearling who went close on his debut on the other Newmarket course (1m, good to firm) last month and showed similar form when third at Doncaster 12 days ago (1m, soft; even-money favourite); the hood worn on both starts is now left off; leading claims for top yard.
