OR:

Form & Verdict
Cost 270,000gns as a yearling and is half-brother his connections' Mill Reef Stakes winner Sakheer; justified odds-on favouritism in 6f contest at Wolverhampton last month and looks promising; likely to cope with the drop to 5f at this level; strongly respected under 7lb penalty.

All three runs on the AW; unbeaten in novices (6f/5f) but was noticeably weak in the market ahead of handicap debut at Lingfield (5f) and never threatened; bit to prove on the back of that.

9st 8lb

J: Jack Mitchell

T: Roger Varian

Won a 6f novice at Wolverhampton on debut (4-9 favourite) and followed up at even shorter odds over C&D in November; unimpressive against modest opponents on that occasion but as an unbeaten, well-related 4yo from a powerful stable, it's highly likely he's capable of further progress.

Form & Verdict
Brings the worst form, having finished last of five in soft-ground event at Bath, but may improve with the experience under her belt and switched to a different surface; bred to have a good future, being related to a few winners for her stable.

Gained her breakthrough success at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) in April and she's held her form with three creditable efforts since; chased home Pop Dancer over C&D 13 days ago and she could pose a serious threat on these revised terms.

Gained her breakthrough success at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) last month off 4lb lower and has backed that up with two solid third place finishes, most recently on turf at Nottingham (5f, good); consistent sort who is likely to give her running once again.

3 yo Colt

OR: 67

Form & Verdict
Six-race maiden who has one stand-out piece of form on turf, namely good second at Brighton in June; sold out of the Cole stable for 2,200gns since last run; far from solid and chance partly depends on how well he takes to change of surface.

Just one win from 22 starts but that came at Brighton (6f, good) last May and he was runner-up on AW at Lingfield last month; remains well handicapped on old form and he's in the mix back on turf.

Last season's campaign fizzled out but he made a fairly encouraging return in 6f Wolverhampton classified last month, keeping on steadily from the rear to finish in midfield; now 6lb lower than for last spring's win at Brighton (6f, good); a possible.

Form & Verdict
Four-race maiden whose turf form has substance, particularly her York effort last autumn behind a subsequent Royal Ascot handicap winner; not disgraced in sole run this season, shaping as if this return to 5f will suit; moved out of Tim Easterby's yard since; one of the main players.

4yo who is 0-8; beat only one rival home at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in June and dropped away inside the final furlong there over 5f last time following a wind operation/three weeks off; back on turf having been dropped another 3lb.

Lightly raced 4yo (0-7) who only beat one home on her return from six months off here (6f) in June; off another three months having undergone wind surgery and it needs to have made a difference.

0-6 and has mixed record, but she's well treated on her stand-out effort for Tim Easterby and wasn't disgraced in a Southwell maiden (5f) when last seen in December; now goes handicapping on her return and needs watching in market back up in trip.
