7/2
Second foal of a dam who was only moderate. Yard are showing signs of getting into full swing. That makes him more interesting than and worth noting in the market as a result.

Fourth foal of a dam who three races for The Queen. Half-brother to useful handicapper Sea Shanty (winner of five races) and Listed winner Light Music. Has a tough draw to overcome on debut.

Well held in two maidens to date. Looks the type to do better in the future when attentions are switched to handicaps.

Cost £90,000 as a yearling. Dam was unraced but was related to a couple of Listed winners. Yard's three-year-olds are well forward so a positive market move would be worth heeding.
€5,000 purchase as a yearling. Dam was a winning sprinter in Germany. Yard do not have a reputation for getting one ready to win a maiden first time out.

3/1
Cost 130,000 guineas as a yearling. Son of Bahamian Bounty out of a dam who won over 7f. Yard are 4-7 in last fortnight and all those winners came in similar races to this.
Fetched 48,000 guineas as a yearling. Derby entry out of a dam who was Group Three winner. Market will be the best guide to his chances with a tough draw to overcome. Sire's progeny go well on this surface.

Has plenty of speed in the pedigree being out of a dam (yet to produce a winner) who won a couple of early season claimers for Bill Turner. Best watched here.

Horse silk
66/1
Eighth foal of a dam who has produced five winners over a range of Flat distances from 1m-1m6f. Pedigree shows an emphasis on stamina so this trip has to be a concern.

Has made little impact in two weaker looking maidens than this. Needs to have improved a lot for her latest run.

Half-sister to El Duque, the winner of four races from 6f-9.5f including two AW contests. Likely to improve for the experience.

Well supported on return to action last time when forced to challenge wide from a poor draw. Clearly capable of much better but has another wide berth here.

Forecasts

Yabrave (3/1), Del Parco (7/2), Tadween (4/1), Yamarhaba Malayeen (5/1), Mythical Spirit (8/1), Pursuing Steed (14/1), Patchwork (16/1), Three's A Crowd (33/1), Luna Bear (50/1), La Isla Bonita (50/1), Lady Prima (66/1), Pushjockeypush (100/1), Hell Of A Lady (100/1), Crinkley Bottom (100/1)

Verdict

Those that have run do not look up to the standard required to win this. Mythical Spirit probably saw too much daylight last time when supported in a minor race at Wolverhampton two weeks ago. That fitness advantage will carry her close but it may pay to concentrate on the newcomers. Derby entrant Yamarhaba Malayeen may do better over further and has a tough draw to overcome. Tadween and YABRAVE represent yards that have had success in three-year-old maidens recently. The former has the pick of the draw but Roger Varian has done so well in these maidens lately that we make YABRAVE the selection to add to his tally.
  1. Yabrave
  2. Tadween
  3. Mythical Spirit
