Sepoy colt who ran with promise when finishing fourth over 5f at Pontefract (good-to-firm) on debut earlier this month. Likely to have improved for that effort and worthy of consideration here.
Well beaten in two races over 5f on good-to-firm ground so far and needs to step up on what he's shown so far with cheekpieces fitted here.
Purchased for £35,000 as a yearling and ran well when finishing fifth over 5f at Redcar (good-to-firm) on debut last month. Likely to have improved for the experience and worth noting here.
Beaten 2½L when finishing third of five over 5f at Doncaster (good-to-firm) on his debut earlier this month. Likely to play a leading role in this contest for a yard who have had three two-year-old winners already this season.
Beaten 3½L into fifth when contesting a nine runner event at Newmarket over 5f last month. Interesting runner contesting what is likely to be a weaker contest here.
Unraced son of Poet's Voice purchased for £30,000 as a yearling in August last year. Dam a winner twice at two and yard have a 20% strike-rate with their two-year-old's on turf so far this year (1/5).
Unraced Fast Company colt purchased for £14,000 as a yearling in August 2016. Dam won three times over 5f including as a two-year-old and worth a check in the market here.
Unraced son of Pivotal purchased for 48,000 gns as a foal in 2015. Half-brother to 5f juvenile winner Emerald Bay and yard have an 18% strike-rate with their two-year-old's on turf so far this season (7/38).
Unraced son of Orientor out of a mare who was placed in selling company over 5f. Probably best watched on debut here.
Unraced daughter of Exceed And Excel. Purchased for 82,000 gns as a yearling last October and a full-sister to Listed winner Windfast. Yard have a 30% strike-rate with their two-year-old's on turf this year and one for the shortlist here.
Forecasts
Unfortunately (13/8), Story Minister (4/1), Crown Of Cortez (6/1), Marnie James (15/2), Armed Response (15/2), Jive Lady (14/1), Bertie Wallace (18/1), Acromatic (18/1), Oriental Power (33/1), Lord Of The Glen (80/1)
STORY MINISTER ran well when making his debut at Doncaster on good-to-firm ground last month and can go two better by taking this opening two-year-old contest. Tom Dascombe's juveniles have started 2017 well and the selection looks likely to have benefited for that debut experience and he can get the better of the unraced filly Jive Lady who is speedily bred and hails from a yard with a good strike-rate with their youngsters this year. Of the remainder Armed Response and Marnie James both ran well on debut while Unfortunately drops in grade today.
- Story Minister
- Jive Lady
- Armed Response
