66/1
Captain Gerrard colt, related to plenty of winners over sprint trips. Green on debut at Beverley but yard's runners often come on for their debut and may show more with that effort under his belt.

Horse silk
25/1
Oasis Dream colt, cost 50,000 gns as a yearling. Nice pedigree but related to plenty of middle distance types and likely to find this too sharp on debut. That along with the yard being a little quiet makes him opposable.

Horse silk
12/1
Dragon Pulse colt, cost €30,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to useful 5/6f winner Knoxville Bullet and plenty of speed in his pedigree. Trainer already had a two-year-old winner and respected on debut.

6/1
Dawn Approach colt, cost 85,000 gns as a yearling. May lack the raw speed for this assignment and yard have been a little quiet this season, opposable on balance but any market support likely to prove significant.

Horse silk
5/1
Red Jazz colt, cost €27,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to middle distance winner Titanic Blond and while yard's juveniles should always be respected, he didn't show enough on debut here earlier in the month and likely to appreciate a greater test of stamina.

Horse silk
1/3
Kodiac colt who cost £100,000 as a yearling. Very promising debut at Newmarket when runner-up behind a smart looking Godolphin colt over 5f. Yard's runners can take giant leaps forward in between runs so looks the one to beat with an eye-catching piece of form already in the book.

Horse silk
10/1
Camacho colt, cost €60,000 as a yearling. Enough speed in his pedigree to suggest he will go well here but yard have been very quiet so far this season.

Horse silk
20/1
Zebedee filly, cost 38,000 gns as a yearling. Plenty of stamina on the dams side of the pedigree and related to German Group 1 winner Tiger Hill. Not dismissed but may find this a little too sharp on debut.

Forecasts

Never Back Down (1/3), Jedi Master (5/1), Haddaf (6/1), Plundered (10/1), Dragons Tail (12/1), Misty Breese (20/1), Colorado Dream (25/1), Bahuta Acha (66/1)

Verdict

NEVER BACK DOWN sets a high standard for the rest to aim at on debut and if he turns up in the same form that saw him finish second on debut at Newmarket, he'll be tough to beat and there's a good chance he will improve. Dragons Tail has plenty of speed in his pedigree and he may enjoy this test while Misty Breese has a beautiful pedigree but may prefer a greater test of stamina.
