Winner over hurdles and in a bumper but well beaten in two starts on the Flat so far and more needed if he's to take this.

Placed three times in bumpers and a couple of decent efforts in Listed and Grade 1 contests in that sphere earlier this year. Ran well when third on Flat debut over 1m4f at Wolverhampton earlier this month and one to note here.

Fair effort when fourth over an extended 1m at Wolverhampton in December. Held over this 1m2f since and debuts for a new yard after a break having been gelded in the interim.

Unraced son of New Approach and a full-brother to high class performer Sajjhaa amongst others. Dam won over an extended 1m2f and one for the shortlist on his racecourse debut.

Placed twice from four starts on the AW including when beaten 1L over an extended 1m4f at Newcastle in June. Disappointed on turf since and this return to the AW should suit.

9/2
Couple of decent efforts earlier this year including when second over 1m4f at Kempton early last month. Well held the last twice but interesting if repeating that Kempton effort.

Forecasts

Mobbhij (11/8), Stanley (7/2), Sileel (9/2), Nelson's Touch (6/1), Second Page (8/1), Caracas (25/1), Fortia (50/1), Bumble Bay (50/1)

Verdict

STANLEY can break his maiden on his first outing for the Richard Hughes stable here. The selection put in some good efforts in maiden company for his previous stable can take this with the newcomer Mobbhij, a well-related New Approach colt taken to finish runner-up on his racecourse debut with Second Page, who has shown his best form on the AW taken to claim third here.
  1. Stanley
