Form & Verdict

63,000euros first foal of a 6f Listed winner (RPR 100); set the pace when prominent in the market at Beverley (5f, good to soft) two weeks ago but he couldn't hang in there and finished a well-held third of ten; should benefit from that experience but he needs plenty of improvement upped in trip.

Form & Verdict

150,000euros yearling; has some useful sprint winners in his pedigree and he made a promising start when a keeping-on second at Doncaster (5f, soft; Battaah close third) last month; sets the standard on that form and he's open to progress on this step up in trip; big player.

Form & Verdict

Blue Point colt who has shown clear promise in his two runs at Doncaster (5f, soft), most recently when a keeping-on second behind a smart prospect three weeks ago; has good draw on this step up in trip and he's strongly respected for yard that won this in 2021.

Form & Verdict

Finished fourth of five when a market springer here (5f, soft; 17-2) two weeks ago but he looked inexperienced and shaped with some promise behind a useful stablemate in that race; should know much more on this step up in trip and he's a likely improver on his second start.
