Beaten a head when finishing runner-up on his debut over 5f at Windsor (good-to-soft) earlier this month. Half-brother to the yards useful sprinter Royal Birth and likely to prove hard to beat in this.

11/1
Unraced home-bred gelded son of Choisir. Half-sister to a number of winning sprinters for this stable, most notably Blithe Spirit and Casterbridge and worth a check in the market on debut.

Best effort in six previous starts came when a close fourth in a six runner contest over 6f at Lingfield off a mark of 71 in April. Beaten twice since and debuts for a new yard today.

Sole placing in ten starts came on the AW off a mark of 53 in March. Held in low grade handicaps of late and wears a visor for the first time today.

Unraced home-bred daughter of Kheleyf out of a mare who won twice over 6f on turf during her racing career. Probably best watched on racecourse debut.

Forecasts

Indian Raj (2/7), Golden Easter (7/4), Tawaafoq (3/1), Swing Time (11/1), Tea El Tee (25/1), Tina Teaspoon (50/1)

Verdict

INDIAN RAJ made a promising debut when finishing runner-up at Windsor and he can go one better in this maiden contest. The selection was slowly away on that occasion and can get the better of Golden Easter, a disappointment when odds-on favourite for his seasonal debut at Brighton in May while of the remainder Tawaafoq is currently rated 69 and can claim third.
  1. Indian Raj
  2. Golden Easter
  3. Tawaafoq
