9st 2lb

J: Shane Foley

T: K R Burke

Consistent nursery form features a win at Leicester (7f) in August and close second at York (1m) last time; chance of defying these stiffer terms depends on how well he responds to first-time headgear.

Golden Brown

8st 5lb

J: Lauren Young

T: Ed Walker

It took him nine attempts to get off the mark, justifying even-money favouritism in a maiden at Salisbury (6f, good) three weeks ago; however, a case can be made judged on his Listed second at Redcar (6f, good to soft) last October; not discounted.

Finished second in the Redcar Two-Year-Old Trophy (6f, good to soft; Listed) last October, form that would give him strong claims in this field; beaten as 4-9 favourite at Lingfield on his reappearance (6f, AW) but the winner there could be useful; should be involved once again.

Off the mark at the third attempt when winning a maiden at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in March and he ran respectably when third of 19 in a handicap at Ascot (6f, good) in May; disappointed over 7f at York 41 days ago but it's still early days, and he might be able to bounce back returned to this trip.

Lightly raced and unexposed; landed odds at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in March and the runner-up has boosted the form; beat all bar two of his 18 rivals in warm handicap at Ascot (6f, good) two weeks ago, doing his best work late on; should be suited by today's step up in distance; leading contender.

All starts at 6f; best of two runs last term came when chasing home two smart Godolphin juveniles on debut at Haydock (good to firm) last May; gelded before justifying a shade of odds-on at Chelmsford (also 6f, AW) on return in March; should do better again and this mark looks fair ahead of his handicap debut.

Form & Verdict
Green when beaten a long way on last month's debut at Newmarket (5f, good); however, he was sent off at just 6-4 and it will be no surprise if this £170,000 yearling is an entirely different proposition on this second start.

Made it three wins from his six 2yo starts when landing the Group 3 Horris Hill at Newbury (7f, soft) last October; has also won on good ground; carries a 5lb penalty on his reappearance and Talk Of New York may be his top yard's chief hope, but he won with something to spare at Newbury and could have a part to play.
