Horse A-Z
Never reached the racecourse at two or three. Doesn't particularly catch the eye on pedigree and booking of an inexperienced rider doesn't enhance his appeal. Watching brief probably the best policy.

33/1
Sent off a 66/1 chance for his debut over 1m at Lingfield last month and showed glimmers of promise amid the greenness, fading inside the final furlong having taken a keen hold. Should come on for that experience but looks more one for handicaps.

6/1
Speedily-bred colt, hailing from a respected yard who have a strong record with their runners at this track. Has to be respected, particularly if the market vibes are positive.

11/8
Promise shown in 6f and 7f maidens as a juvenile before ending the campaign with a solid fourth-placed effort behind Masham Star in a decent Class 3 nursery at Doncaster. Reappears with the yard in good order and this looks a winning opportunity if handling an AW surface.

1/1
No stable star but enough shown in two runs as a juvenile over 1m to suggest than an ordinary maiden should be within his reach, most recently when a runner-up on the AW at Lingfield. Interesting to see him dropped to 7f for his return, obvious contender.

66/1
Unfancied and beaten out of sight on her debut in a Nottingham maiden last autumn and fared only marginally better over 7f at Lingfield on her reappearance. Doesn't look up to winning a maiden on what she has shown so far.

Horse silk
50/1
Slowly away and tailed off on debut at Wolverhampton but clear signs of improvement when beaten little more than 5L behind Traveller over 7f at Lingfield next time. Should continue to improve but still a surprise if she didn't meet at least a couple too good.

Forecasts

Muqaatil (1/1), Lualiwa (11/8), Bobbio (6/1), Badenscoth (33/1), Toolatetodelegate (50/1), Tilsworth Lukey (50/1), Noreena (66/1)

Verdict

Positive market vibes for Bobbio would be interesting here, otherwise it looks a straight fight between Lualiwa and MUQAATIL on all known form. Of that pair, it's the latter who makes more appeal on the basis that he is less exposed and may improve for this drop back in trip judged by the way he travelled over 1m on his final juvenile start.
