Has run to a similar level of form in both starts so far over 6f-6½f, when comfortably held. Steps up in trip today, which should be a positive, though all signs appear to be pointing towards nurseries.
Green on debut at Wolverhampton in May when a 7L seventh of 11. Was sent off at just 5-1 that day suggesting that he has some ability. Stable 2-8 in recent days, so he could be capable of a sizeable step up today both for that experience and for the extra furlong.
Third of four, beaten 3½L on debut at Leicester (7f, good to firm), which sets the standard in this. Yard's juveniles still running at a fantastic 43% strike rate this season, so there is every chance that he can go very close.
Dam was placed over 1m in France and is a half-sister to 1m2f/1m4f Grade Three winner Mustanfar and 1m Listed winner Tadris, out of a close relative to Unfuwain and half-sister to Nashwan. Three winners and six placed from just 14 runners on turf for the yard's juveniles, so this debutant is respected.
Made some improvement for his Windsor debut when stepped up to 6f at Wolverhampton last month, making the frame there albeit it will beaten. An extra furlong today should help with that continued upward curve, but he looks likely to show more when he moves into nurseries.
Similar efforts in both starts so far for this daughter of Dawn Approach, over 6½f (soft) and then 7f (good to firm) at Doncaster. Stable in cracking form at present, so a market check is suggested, though otherwise she is another who looks likely to be heading for nurseries soon.
Beaten 11L (7f. good to firm) at Newbury on debut last month when 25-1 and never really involved in the contest. Should be capable of some improvement for the experience, but her day is more likely to be in the future.
Very green on her Yarmouth debut (6f, good to firm) when 100-1 last month. Looks like she will take a bit of winding up and others are preferred today.
An interesting contender, who made a pleasing debut before apparently being hampered by soft ground at Wetherby next time. Was then tried in the Group Three Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot where she was not disgraced when beaten 11L, considering her 125-1 SP. Step up in trip can help here and she is not ruled out.

Jazirat (7/4), Jaalboot (3/1), Sackeb (4/1), Wildnightinvegas (7/1), Jo's Girl (12/1), Daffrah (16/1), Dark Blue (16/1), El Borracho (25/1), Go Bananas (25/1), Honey Blossom (66/1)
A number of these look nursery-bound and it should pay to concentrate on the few that have shown most so far, with JAZIRAT getting the vote. Charlie Appleby's juveniles have had a fabulous first half of the turf campaign and this one can build on an eyecatching debut. Jaalboot is probably capable of a fair bit more than he showed on debut and should have an interest in the closing stages, while debutant Sackeb and the more experienced Jo's Girl are likely to be thereabouts.
