Dubawi colt who ran out a ready winner on debut at Kempton (10f) in March and built on that when second under a penalty at Newmarket in April. Took another step forward when second in a Goodwood listed event since and that ought not to prove his limit now handicapping. | |||||

Catterick maiden winner (7f) as a 2-y-o who ran best race to date when second on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in May. Easy enough to put a line through subsequent Epsom run (reportedly finished lame) but others may have greater potential in any case. | |||||

Improved with each outing for up-and-coming yard, second on debut at Newcastle prior to landing back-to-back turf novice contests (at 1m) latterly at Haydock in May. Bred to be suited by this longer trip now handicapping and highly likely there's more to come. | |||||

Progressed with each start to date, bolting up in a Pontefract maiden (1m) and impressing once more in the way he powered clear to make it 2-3 in a Salisbury novice (9.9f) in May. Well worth considering now handicapping with prospect of more to come. | |||||

Quickly reached a useful level and readily justified cramped odds over this trip at Sandown 7 days ago, well on top at the finish. Interesting that connections pitch him in here quickly and he's well worth considering with prospect of more to come. | |||||

Teofilo colt who landed back-to-back AW novice events at 1m earlier this year and arrives here on the back of a career-best display when keeping on for third at Sandown (1m) in April. Looks ready for this step up in trip on that evidence and respected. | |||||

Much-improved from debut when first past post at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in December (subsequently disqualified) and quickly made amends when winning impressively on return at Newbury (1¼m) in May, eased late on. More to come now handicapping and he's a big player. | |||||

French raider who showed fairly useful form when landing maiden/handicaps on artificial surfaces earlier this year. Ran up to best to finish in-the-frame in pair of minor events subsequently but others appeal more for win purposes on balance. | |||||

Successful on 2 of his 3 starts in novices, making light of a 6-month absence at Beverley (8.5f) in April. Not disgraced when fifth pitched in to a hot Haydock handicap (1m) since but this another tough ask stepping up to 1¼m. | |||||

Still showed signs of greenness but well on top at the line when off the mark in a Doncaster maiden (10.2f) in March. Proved too keen when fourth in 6-runner listed event at Newmarket (10f) and he'll need to settle better now stepping into handicaps. | |||||

Promising son of Almanzor who landed a small-field Salisbury maiden (12f) early on last month and had little trouble with drop back to 1¼m to follow up on handicap bow at Bath since, keeping on well. This his toughest assignment yet but likely he's more in his locker. | |||||

Galileo colt. Matched previous best when landing 13-runner Roscommon maiden (7.8f) in April but failed to improve for switch to handicaps/step up to 1¼m at Navan subsequently. Tongue tie goes on and yard's runners never underestimated here. | |||||

Decorated Knight colt. Promise when third on debut at Kempton (1m) in December and much improved to land back-to-back maiden/novice events from the front at Redcar/Chepstow in recent weeks. Very straightforward type who is respected once more now handicapping. | |||||

Promising sort who tasted success on second of 2 starts in a French minor event in November and perfect start for new yard when landing 8-runner AW novice event (12.2f) in April. However, more needed in this much more competitive enviornment now handicapping. | |||||

15. JIMI HENDRIX (IRE) J: Non Runner T: Ralph Beckett |
3 8-9 |
||
New Bay colt who ended 2-y-o campaign with success in a Doncaster maiden (7f) and made a winning handicap debut at Haydock (1m) last month, Good third of 30 in Britannia at this course (8f, good to firm, 20/1) 2 days ago. NON RUNNER. | |||||

Dual novice winner who almost certainly progressed again sent handicapping when third of 7 at Chester (12.3f) in May. Similar form from this 2 lb higher mark when fifth of 9 at Musselburgh since but suspicion he will again find a few too good in this even stronger affair. | |||||

Australia colt who stepped up markedly on his debut form when third in a strong Salisbury novice (1m) in September and improved further to take a heavy ground Newbury minor event (1m) when last seen in October. Type to progress again in handicaps this campaign. | |||||
