Form & Verdict
Record of 3-3 since being gelded includes 1m2f wins at Ripon/Beverley that represent solid form and suggest he'll be suited by 1m4f; transferred the ability to hurdles last time; respected with further improvement plausible.

2-2 on the Flat (1m2f; now rated 56) since being gelded, narrowly beating the frustrating Bradbury both occasions; dam was an unraced half-sister to the useful 2m-2m3f hurdle winner Daybreak Boy among others; interesting to see the level of market confidence behind him.

Gelded and much improved when gaining a first win in 1m2f handicap at Ripon 22 days ago, collaring Bradbury on post; merits serious consideration despite 3lb rise.

Form & Verdict
Eight-race maiden whose handicap form, latterly over 1m6f, isn't particularly convincing; may benefit from the drop back in trip but others have stronger claims.

Little impact since handicapping and when third at Redcar 16 days ago (first run at the trip) she was still beaten nearly 10l in a three-runner race; headgear dispensed with today; not solid.

Unplaced in six starts and unraced beyond 1m2f; usually held up in her races but not sure if this will pan out ideally for her; blinkers return.

Form & Verdict
Eight-race maiden who is proving inconsistent but has possibilities on peak effort, namely short-head second off current mark at Haydock (11.5f) three starts ago; tongue-tie replaces cheekpieces.

Well beaten at a short price without headgear last time and it's no surprise to see the cheekpieces back in place; holds obvious claims on his previous Haydock near-miss.

Still a maiden after six starts but lost out only by a short head over similar trip to today's at Haydock (good; wore cheekpieces) three weeks ago, despite racing too freely; might be more relaxed with the headgear left off here; respected.

Form & Verdict
Ten-race maiden; rallied for respectable third upped to 1m2f at Beverley most recently, leaving the impression she'll benefit from tonight's even longer distance and return of headgear (namely first-time cheekpieces); shortlisted.

Nine-race maiden who has been underwhelming in handicaps; however, her best RPR came when third in a 7.4f novice last September on her sole previous visit to Beverley, and it's possible going beyond 1m for the first time might suit this Time Test filly; not ruled out.

Fairly exposed now; best run was when third of eight in a Beverley novice last September (7.5f, soft); fair form in two 1m handicaps this time; may be suited by this drop in trip with headgear now tried.

Brother to two winners and dam was a German 1m6f Group 3 winner; however, he was an 11l sixth of eight at 12-1 on debut at Catterick (7f, soft) three weeks ago and needs to leave that behind.

Betting Forcast

11/2 Picaro, 5/4 Vietnorm, 20/1 Fairydale, 100/30 Keep It Classic, 13/2 Resdev Time, 12/1 Hansteen, 12/1 Star Of Emerald, 12/1 Riddikulus

Verdict

The strongest contender is VIETNORM (nap) who has solid form, remains unbeaten since being gelded and looks open to further progress. Keep It Classic, who has possibilities provided the tongue-tie helps, is second choice ahead of Resdev Time and Picaro.[Steve Boow]
