2 yo Colt

OR: 95

Form & Verdict
Ran over 5f (good) on first three starts, with two good seconds sandwiching a win at Musselburgh, and he took a step forward on his first attempt at 6f when making all in the Woodcote at Epsom (good to soft) last month; this is a much tougher test of his credentials but he did it easily last time and could make another bold bid.

Form & Verdict
900,000euros breeze-up buy who was sent off the well-backed 4-9 favourite when winning on last month's debut at York (6f, good); that 2l win was a performance packed with promise and the second/third have both won since; has a Group 1 entry; exciting prospect for his powerful connections.

Form & Verdict
Won big-field novice at York's Dante meeting in May on his second start (6f, good) and he suffered interference when well beaten in the Group 2 Norfolk at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); the return to 6f could be a positive and his stable has an excellent record in this race, but others have more substance to their claims.
