32Red On The App Store Maiden Stakes

Damocles^t¹⁸⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| BF

13/8

Two respectable effort so far and likely more to come from this 130,000 gns purchase. Interesting contender for a top yard, so plenty of ticks in the right boxes.

Form: 44

Hi Ho Silver²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S W Kelly| T: C F Wall

33/1

Third of six on debut but well beaten on that occasion and plenty more now required. Bred to be effective on the AW, so feasible there may be a bit more to come. Likely to be next year on the evidence available though.

Form: 3

(10)

Shanghai Shane¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Joshua Bryan⁽⁵⁾| T: B Barr

200/1

Last on debut and ran out in the early stages last time hardly inspiring form. Surprising if allowed to start at double figure odds.

Form: 0R

(5)

Wannabe Like You⁸⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Edward Greatrex| T: A Watson

8/1

Looks a fractious type and may be best to gauge the betting before taking any plunge with a speculative punt that his top trainer can quickly find the the key to this well-bred but possibly temperamental individual.

Form: 40

(12)

Wardy¹¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Josephine Gordon| T: P W Chapple-Hyam

12/1

Cost 50,000 gns as a yearling and has shown a glimpse of ability. Needs to improve on his latest effort but at least has experience of 7f, so not without a chance if taking to an artificial surface.

Form: 56

Aegean Bounty

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Mitch Godwin⁽³⁾| T: J J Bridger

66/1

Cost just 7,000 gns and is out of an unraced half-sister to a Gimcrack winner. Limited appeal on paper and may be best watched on debut despite her yard being back among the winners.

Form:

Catheadans Fury^t1

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: George Wood⁽³⁾| T: M R Bosley

40/1

Dam was a decent sprinter who has AW winners in her pedigree. Yard very quiet just now, however, and this filly makes limited appeal in her bid to boost the coffers.

Form:

(8)

Domitilla¹⁹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Ryan Tate| T: M Botti

2/1

Cost 72,000 gns and debuted in a race that has produced winners. Absence since April a bit of a concern but this does lack strength-in-depth, so it's very possible this could turn out to be a canny bit of placement by her connections.

Form: 4

(9)

Ladakhi²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: William Carson| T: B R Millman

14/1

Two starts to date just ordinary and the fact she went off at odds of 100/1 latest suggests she is still a work in progress. Qualified for a mark after this so may do better in handicaps in due course.

Form: 05

(1)

Lady Carduros

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D C Costello| T: N P Mulholland

33/1

Yard has had winners in the last fortnight, so feasible she could extend the run of form. The betting can guide but others more appealing on face value.

Form:

(3)

Musical Fire^p1⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Charles Bishop| T: P Hedger

100/1

Last on both previous starts and has shown little to get enthusiastic about. Yard also quiet just now, so probably safe to let her do her own thing.

Form: 67

(14)

Peace Terms

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: R M Beckett

6/1

Went for 70,000 gns as a yearling and is a half-sister to several useful types. yard can get one ready and this daughter of the top-class Teofilo could be dangerous to underestimate. The betting can guide but one of the more interesting contenders.

Form:

Stockhill Star^h1⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: L P Keniry| T: B G Powell

100/1

Keen to get on with things on debut but finished well beaten in the end. Should be wiser for the run but needs to learn to settle.

Form: 7

(2)

Sunset Bounty¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Adam Beschizza| T: Miss J Feilden

100/1

Related to winners in the States but lacked sparkle in either start to date. May find more for the switch in surface but still plenty to prove.

Form: 87

Forecasts

Damocles (13/8), Domitilla (2/1), Peace Terms (6/1), Wannabe Like You (8/1), Wardy (12/1), Ladakhi (14/1), Hi Ho Silver (33/1), Lady Carduros (33/1), Catheadans Fury (40/1), Aegean Bounty (66/1), Musical Fire (100/1), Sunset Bounty (100/1), Stockhill Star (100/1), Shanghai Shane (200/1)

John Gosden may have had plenty of bigger fish to fry but DAMOCLES can keep things ticking over at this sort of level for the two-time champion trainer. Domitilla also appeals as one to bear in mind as a potential spoiler, while Peace Terms is another that catches the eye as a nicely-bred fil;ly to be introduced at this time of year.
