Worthy Spirit14
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-0| J: D C Costello| T: A Wintle
200/1
Shown very little in six starts to date across both codes and has to concede weight all-round here.

Tibibit10
Age: 4|  Weight: 9-9| J: G Baker| T: H Tett
14/1
Has struggled to break on terms in both her starts to date but has shaped with plenty of promise in her races thereafter. Still early days but trainer hasn't had a winner over jumps or on the Flat in the last year.

Alexander M14
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-9| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston
5/1
Tailed off last on debut at Ayr and has a six-month absence to overcome. Likely to do better with time.

Broad Appeal
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-9| J: Mitch Godwin(5)| T: J G Portman
25/1
Bought for £18,000 as a yearling. Trainer's runners often come on for there debut run and has a wide draw to contend with on debut.

Excel Again16
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-9| J: Oisin Murphy| T: J Tate
9/2
110,000 gns as a yearling and bred to be effective on this surface. Trainer capable of getting on ready for debut and looks the most exciting prospect of the newcomers.

My Brother Mike21
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-9| J: S Donohoe| T: D M Loughnane
33/1
Only minor promise in two starts to date and likely to do better when able to compete in handicaps; qualifies for a mark after this race.

Age: 3|  Weight: 8-9| J: S W Kelly| T: D R C Elsworth
7/4
Didn't run without promise when 5th of ten at Lingfield on debut and entitled to progress from that but will need to in what looks a good maiden.

William Sayle16
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-9| J: N Mackay| T: J & T Gosden
4/1
Bought for a 100,000 gns as a two-year-old and likely to want further than this with time but worthy of plenty of respect for a yard that does exceptionally well with there younger horses.

Drumochter
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-4| J: William Carson| T: C Hills
16/1
Cost £70,000 as a yearling and trainer has a respectable record with his debutantes. Market likely to reveal plenty.

Feisty One U R14
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-4| J: M Dwyer| T: George Baker
66/1
Slowly into stride last time and never really got into the thick of it but she's bred to enjoy this surface and trainer has a respectable AW record so worthy of respect.

Sublime20
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-4| J: Ryan Tate| T: B R Millman
100/1
Seemed to regress from her debut run last time and this looks the strongest race she's contested to date. Likely to do better in handicaps which she will qualify for after this race.

Forecasts

Trade Route (7/4), William Sayle (4/1), Excel Again (9/2), Alexander M (5/1), Tibibit (14/1), Drumochter (16/1), Broad Appeal (25/1), My Brother Mike (33/1), Feisty One U R (66/1), Sublime (100/1), Worthy Spirit (200/1)

Verdict

EXCEL AGAIN cost a pretty penny as a yearling and he's narrowly preferred to another debutante, William Sayle. The former is bred to be effective on this surface and his trainer does well with his younger horses while the latter may prefer a little further with time. Tibibit looks capable of running a place if breaking on terms. 1. Excel Again 2. William Sayle 3. Tibibit
