Cost 55,000 gns as a yearling, this High Chaparral gelded brother to Thunder Pass and useful The Cashel Man wore blinkers (retained) on Doncaster debut 32 days ago over 1m2f and was unable to sustain a challenge. Should be wiser and fitter for that experience.

Lawman colt cost 45,000 gns as a yearling, is related to multiple winners including 1m2f winner Romsdal. Trainer is 0/47 on turf over the last 12 months, looks best watched on debut.

Son of Galileo showed promise in a typical Newmarket back end maiden and improved a bit on that in 1m2f AW maiden at Chelmsford last month on reappearance. Can have a say in this.

Galileo colt who cost 75,000 gns as a yearling and who is related to multiple winners. Yard don't have a bad record with juveniles and recovered from slow start to finish runner-up on debut over 1m4f on AW at Wolverhampton 11 days ago. Should improve.

Galileo colt is a brother to three winners, including very smart 1m2f-1m4f winner The Corsican and smart winner Deauville, one of two for the trainer in this line-up with market check essential.

3/1
Frankel colt cost €750,000 as a yearling, makes debut here for leading trainer and has the best in the business booked to ride. Perfect set-up for winning start seemingly.

7/1
Changed hands for €130,000 as a two-year-old, having cost significantly less than that as a foal, this Teofilo colt was perhaps a bit keen to get on with things on debut at Lingfield recently. Should have learned from that, though this isn't easy on paper.

Forecasts

Orsino (15/8), Fibonacci (5/2), The Grand Visir (3/1), Touwari (7/1), Lethal Impact (8/1), Stockton (16/1), Dixon (50/1), Air Ministry (66/1)

Verdict

Some interesting contenders for this maiden prize and none more so than Frankel's son THE GRAND VISIR, his claims are strong on paper and with the jockey booking adding to confidence, he should make a bold bid for a winning start. Orsino also lacks for nothing on breeding and he showed plenty ability when recovering from a slow break to be second over a longer trip on debut at Wolverhampton recently, more can be expected from him. Lethal Impact can do better than at Newbury last time while stablemate Stockton is a respected newcomer and Fibonacci is capable of building on a decent reappearance at Chelmsford.
