Started favourite on all three starts as a juvenile and won the last of them at Chantilly. Clearly well regarded and has to enter calculations despite conceding weight to all bar Bobby K.

Well beaten in both starts at Lingfield and Kempton. Needs to show much more to figure in what is likely to be an above-average race of this nature.

Promising second in a couple of AW events in the autumn. Returns from a winter break and is one to consider even though his future probably lies in handicaps.

12/1
Pivotal colt out of a Singspiel mare, he cost 75,000 gns as a yearling and is a half-brother to five winners from 6f to 1m. Plenty of promise in fair race on debut at Kempton and should take a step forward under his top French jockey.

Gelded son of New Approach who is a full-brother to 1m winner Zamfir. Too green to do himself justice over C&D in February and should know much more this time.

Promise on both starts at Yarmouth as a juvenile. Top stable has yet to hit full stride this season and this colt is best watched with the future in mind.

Gelded son of Giant's Causeway from a winning family in the US. Leading stable among the winners so a market check is necessary on his debut. Yard also runs West Wing.

Leroidesanimaux gelding who cost 70,000gns as a two-year-old and is a half-brother to three winners from 6f to 1m4f. Attracted market support when an unlucky-in-running sixth of 12 on debut at Kempton and can build on that introduction.

14/1
Galileo filly who cost $1,200,000 as a foal and is from a high-class US family. Did not get the best of runs on debut at Chelmsford, but needs to step forward if she is to suggest she can one day justify her lofty price tag.

66/1
Second foal by North Light out of an unraced Selkirk mare, Sent off at 66-1 when well held on debut at Kempton and looks a work in progress.

Forecasts

Dream Warrior (1/1), Blame Culture (5/1), Bobby K (11/2), West Wing (7/1), Herdwick (7/1), Definition (12/1), Glories (14/1), Firlinfeu (16/1), Tuscan Pearl (20/1), Hinde Street (25/1), Test Valley (25/1), Makin It (66/1), Argent Bleu (80/1)

Verdict

Plenty of horses with potential and, with some top stables represented, it would be no surprise to see the winner develop into a good sort. West Wing looks the best of his top stable's two runners and can hit the frame, while Dream Warrior is probably better than he has shown and is sure to have his supporters. Herdwick and Tuscan Pearl are others to watch with the future in mind, but the one who makes most appeal is DEFINITION, who shaped with a good deal of promise in a fair race on debut and for whom a top French jockey has been engaged.
