5/1
Shock 33/1 winner on debut and showed that to be no fluke by running a big race in defeat at Haydock. Folded tamely at Doncaster last time when having plenty of use made of him. Hood fitted today but looks vulnerable under a penalty.

50/1
Signs of improvement last time but he still looks several pounds below the level that will be required to land this.
Related to several winners and hails from a yard in form. Took a backward step last time but stable's youngsters do well here (3-12 and a further four placed) for a 22 points profit.

15/2
Pick of his three runs came on debut after missing the break. Ridden more prominently since and has found little for pressure.
14,000 gns son of Elnadim displayed some promise on Salisbury debut but still has plenty to find with Bombastic on that showing.

9/4
Beaten only a head on debut at Nottingham last time on heavy ground, shaping with a great deal of promise despite running freely. The form looks weak but market support suggests he is well regarded. Engaged 5:40 Chelmsford Thursday
Sir Prancealot filly, bought for €30,000 as a yearling. Ran well on debut with cut in the ground but well beaten at Goodwood last time when relatively well-fancied. Bit to prove off the back of that effort but this looks easier.
40,000 gns daughter of Power out of a speedy dam who won four races on quick ground. Conditions may be against her on debut and yard not associated with juvenile success.

Forecasts

Speak In Colours (9/4), Lady Dancealot (5/2), Bombastic (3/1), Wasim (5/1), Jack Regan (15/2), Immortal Romance (8/1), Scenery (10/1), Restless Rose (33/1), Caviar Royale (50/1)

Verdict

Speak In Colours should improve on his debut effort on his second run for a yard whose horses often need a run. The form of his debut third has been taking knocks and BOMBASTIC has achieved much more in hotter company. He deserves a change of luck following solid runs at Goodwood and Salisbury. Wasim faces a stiff task under a penalty and Immortal Romance may be a bigger danger.
  1. Bombastic
  2. Speak In Colours
  3. Immortal Romance
