Form & Verdict
Galileo colt who cost 400,000gns as a foal; made a successful debut in Leopardstown maiden (1m2f, good) one month ago, leaving the impression this longer distance will suit; promising sort who is one of two strong contenders for Aidan O'Brien.

Attractively bred colt, by Ghaiyyath out of a Sea The Stars mare; has shown solid promise, having been placed at Newmarket in sole 2yo start then successful at Southwell (1m4f, AW) on reappearance; goes up in grade looking open to further progress; possibilities.

110,000gns foal, by Ghaiyyath; 16-1 for novice at Newmarket (7f, good) in November, drawn widest and hanging right from 3f out but he stayed on nicely to be third of 15; has Dante and Irish Derby entries; in the mix on that debut form and could be a big improver.

Form & Verdict
Justified favouritism at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) on seasonal debut but was unable to defy a penalty in the Southwell race won by Nightime Dancer; fitting of headgear needs to prompt improvement.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Andrew Balding

140,000gns yearling, late foal; showed promise at Newmarket (1m, soft) in October and justified 8-11 favouritism in four-runner novice at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) three weeks ago; the latter was in tidy fashion and he'll be capable of better, but others currently have a better chance on form.

Form & Verdict
Sandown maiden winner at two; perhaps didn't entirely handle Epsom in the Blue Riband Trial (1m2f, good) on reappearance but still ran well on bare figures and shaped as if this extra yardage will suit; remains of interest.

OR:

Form & Verdict
Nicely bred colt, by Study Of Man out of a well-related Galileo mare; likely found 7f too sharp in sole run for Peter Chapple-Hyam; well suited by the step up to 1m4f in Polytrack maiden here since, justifying favouritism with something left up his sleeve; should build on that win and looks an interesting prospect.

Never in contention in a 7f maiden at Newmarket last August (when trained by Peter Chapple-Hyam); this trip should be more suitable on pedigree and he's one to take seriously on his stable debut.
