Stable has made a good start with their two-year-olds this year and looks a likely type on debut. Market should be informative.

Mazeo Lad¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Lemos De Souza| T: Miss A Murphy

25/1

Ran well for a long way on debut and entitled to improve. Bit to find with Victory Command. but with progress can be competitive.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Edward Greatrex| T: Eve Johnson Houghton

No Diggity

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: R Spencer

Victory Command¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: J Mitchell| T: C & M Johnston

3/1

War Command colt who cost 6,000gns as a yearling and a half-brother to a number of winners including at Group 2 level. Showed plenty on debut and stable's runners progress with each run. Looks the one to beat on known form.

Form: 3

(13)

Hawayel

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Hills

14/1

Daughter of Dandy Man so bred to have plenty of speed. Looks a likely type on paper for good yard and market support would be significant.

Form:

(5)

Capla Gilda

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: A Fresu| T: M Botti

25/1

Cost £6,000 as a yearling and has speed on both sides of pedigree. Stable does well with juveniles here but are having a quiet spell. Market may provide the best guide.

Form:

(10)

Stay Classy

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: R Spencer

Same connections as No Diggity and also on debut. Likely to improve with experience and over further.

Forecasts

Victory Command (3/1), Aurag (4/1), Stay Classy (9/2), Arcadian Rocks (13/2), Oberyn Martell (8/1), Hawayel (14/1), Bungle Billy (16/1), Hurricane Speed (18/1), Mazeo Lad (25/1), Capla Gilda (25/1), No Diggity (25/1), Blazing Dreams (33/1), Cemetry Wall (33/1)

VICTORY COMMAND was not without support and ran with promise on debut. That form is the best on offer and he should only improve for a stable who are going typically well with their two-year-olds. Mazeo Lad was behind the selection on debut but also ran with credit and could be in the mix with natural improvement while Arcadian Rocks has shown enough in both runs to be competitive once again. Aurag, Hurricane Speed, Hawayel and Capla Gilda should all be noted from good stables on debut.
