Stellar Group Maiden Stakes

Former Godolphin inmate who wasn't disgraced on two starts last season, the latter over 1m2f. Bought for £22,000 but drop back in trip unlikely to suit and will be of more interest when back over further. Jockey rides this course well.

Former Godolphin inmate, bought for £8,000 by these connections earlier in the year. Showed very little on first start for this yard and will probably do better once switched to handicaps.

Still a maiden after 18 starts and thoroughly exposed. Very hard to fancy after finishing 17th of 18 last time at Thirsk.

26-race maiden. Career best came at Chelmsford 18 months ago and best form ha generally been over shorter than this and on the AW; hard to recommend against less exposed rivals.

Well beaten on both his starts so far and will need to improve markedly to take a hand here. Will be of more interest in handicaps.

Henrythenavigator gelding, cost 15,000 gns as a foal and 12,000 gns as a yearling. All the signs in his pedigree suggest he wants further than this trip and yard have been out of form in recent weeks, though, they do well here with their younger horses.

Yet to win in seven starts but has shown a fair level of form in some of those efforts, including last time at Lingfield when finishing a well-backed third. Should be thereabouts again in this field despite an inconvenient draw.

Shamardal colt whose dam was an Australian Listed winner. Very green on debut but overcame his inexperience to finish second. No doubt he will have learnt plenty from that effort and will take a fair bit of beating here, despite the wide draw.

Unplaced on all three starts last year but could be a different kettle of fish this time around and she did well to finish runner-up here earlier in the month after a tardy start. Should come on again for that run and yard in good form.
