Ordinary form in a couple of bumpers and needs to improve greatly for the switch in codes. Also needs to learn how to settle before she can confidently be recommended.
Exposed as ordinary in three average bumpers; another that has something to prove under this code of racing and may be best to just take note in running on this occasion.
Cost 24,000 gns and is bred to appreciate at least this sort of trip. But he dropped out tamely at Newmarket last time out so now has questions to answer over his stamina. That said, he is unlikely to be taken off his feet in this company, so would be dangerous to totally leave out of the equation.
Cost 375,000 gns and is related to a handful over very useful individuals. However, he didn't look anything special on debut at Windsor and needed plenty of stoking along. Has a lot to prove after that performance and is best watched unless the market indicates a dramatic amount of improvement is on the cards.
Cost 10,000 gns and has a likeable pedigree, which suggests this trip ought to suit. Yard has been quiet of late but is capable of having one ready for a race of this nature.
Finished in front of just one horse in both of his previous starts up to press, which leaves a lot to be desired. His dam won over 1m4f but he will need to pull out all the stops if he is going to emulate the feat. Hard to fancy.
Holds a Derby entry but created the impression that a low-grade handicap will be more realistic after finishing last on debut at Beverley last month. May also be seen to better effect when faced with a sterner test of stamina.
Cost €34,000 and has made good progress so far; sets the standard to aim for at present. Would be giving weight away if this were a handicap, so may have been found an ideal opportunity to gain a confidence booster before tackling the next stage of his development.
Hasn't been a factor in either of her starts up to press and has a lot to find on the evidence available. She is a half-sister to a 2m hurdle winner, so may develop more when she's tested over further in due course.
Forecasts
Globetrotter (15/8), The Grey Warrior (5/2), Key Bid (11/4), Sunrize (16/1), Montanna (16/1), Donnachies Girl (20/1), Red Ochre (22/1), Jump Around (33/1), New Society (50/1)
A weak race, which can go the way THE GREY WARRIOR, who is at least progressing with each run and appears to have been found a decent opportunity to get off the mark. Time may tell that Globetrotter faced a tough test on debut, so is also worthy of consideration, while Montanna really wouldn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to be involved in the shake-up.
