22-1 but made a pleasing debut at Beverley earlier in the month (5f, good to firm) when green early on but coming home well to finish 3L fourth of 13. If this doesn't come too soon then he should be able to better that and can go close.
€40,000 yearling. Half-brother to five winners, including one over this trip as a juvenile and another over 7f at two. Stable under par so far this season with its turf juveniles (4% strike rate compared to an average of 12%), so may need this run and the market will be our best guide.
Ran well on debut at Ayr (6f, good), but failed to build on that when dropped to this trip at Carlisle (5f, good to soft) last time. Possible that the easier ground was an excuse there and he may be better on this forecast faster surface, but he has that to prove.
Showed a little improvement for her Carlisle debut when back at that venue last time, finishing 1¾L ahead of Onesarnieshort on that occasion. Yet to race on a sound/fast surface, so may be able to show a bit more in these conditions, but likely to have a bit too much to find today.
Not beaten far in either of her last two starts at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) and Nottingham (5f, good), when she performed to similar levels. Looks a leading player if she can produce another similar effort or better.
Forecasts
Albert Street (6/5), Jive Lady (2/1), Onesarnieshort (5/1), Le Gros Serpant (12/1), Elements Quest (16/1)
Jive Lady has put together a couple of decent efforts in the context of this race and should again be capable of having a big say, though we will side with the less exposed ALBERT STREET, who can hopefully build on the promise of his recent Beverley debut. The other pair with experience look in need of improvement to trouble that pair, with Onesarnieshort perhaps the pick of them.
- Albert Street
- Jive Lady
