Unraced sort who increased in price from foal to yearling and has some useful and speedy relation in his pedigree. Yard have had juvenile debutante winners this year although most have improved for their initial outing.
A very cheap yearling from a yard that are not known for their two-year-old winners. He steps up in trip here but would need to show a lot more to take a hand in a decent contest.
One of the most experienced in this field his form has steadily improved with the best of his three runs coming last time over 6f at Newmarket. Handled the softer ground well there and stayed on strongly after being outpaced and it looks as though this increased trip will suit him.
Has already had experience of this track having made his debut here showing ability when well found in the betting. Went with enthusiasm (probably did too much for his first start) and may well do better with that under his belt and dangerous if ridden off the front again.
Beaten just one home in both of his runs so far at Lingfield and Bath and made only minimal progress last time out from his debut on his second run. Will need to show more here if he's to take a hand stepped up in trip on his third start.
Ran over C&D last time out and shaped well enough without necessarily showing improvement on his second start from his debut. Looks to have ability and will be interesting for nurseries when given a mark.
Overall profile looks rather patchy with just his second at Brighton on his second start looking like form that would give him a chance here. Would need to settle better than he did last time out to take a hand here and would have to step up on what he has shown so far.
Forecasts
Dichato (4/5), Doublet (10/3), Algam (8/1), Font Vert (11/1), Rivas Rob Roy (16/1), Erastus (20/1), Arrogant (50/1)
Dichato sets a clear standard here with a repeat of his last two runs being good enough to win this but the experience gained of this course on his debut run by DOUBLET makes him of slightly more interest at the likely prices. Algam is the only debutante in the field but should be watched in the betting with Font Vert another to keep an eye on for the future with nurseries in mind.
- Doublet
- Dichato
