Shaybani¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: Finley Marsh⁽⁵⁾| T: R Hughes| OR: 87| C

7/4

Winner over 5f at this track before finding the company too hot in the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. Obvious chance dropped in class.

Form: 210

Amazing Fox^b1⁴⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R Kingscote| T: R M Beckett

14/1

Alhebayeb colt who cost 180,000 gns as a yearling and is a half-brother to three winners from 5f to 1m2f. Well held on debut at Salisbury and connections already reach for blinkers.

Showout

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A Watson

13/8

Gelded son of Showcasing who cost 48,000 gns as a yearling and is a half-brother to four winners from 7f to 1m3f. Stable enjoying a good spell and he is one to note on debut.

Spirit Of May³⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Fahy| T: R A Teal

6/1

Coach House colt who is a half-brother to a winner in Italy. Promising second of six over 5½f on debut at Bath and should be wiser for the outing.

Form: 2

Glamorous Crescent

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Mason

50/1

Stimulation filly whose dam won over 5f. Likely to need this debut run, but is worth checking out for market support.

Porcelain Girl¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Hayley Turner| T: M L W Bell

6/1

Needed her debut run at Haydock and improved to finish third of nine over 7f at Doncaster, shaping as though a return to this shorter trip would help. Has a fair shout with even better on the cards.

Forecasts

Showout (13/8), Shaybani (7/4), Urban Light (7/2), Porcelain Girl (6/1), Spirit Of May (6/1), Dutch Treat (6/1), Disruptor (12/1), Amazing Fox (14/1), Glamorous Crescent (50/1)

A trappy juvenile contest in which cases can be made for Porcelain Girl, Dutch Treat and Spirit Of May, each of whom are open to improvement. Showout is an interesting newcomer, but course winner SHAYBANI was not disgraced when 12th of 23 at Royal Ascot last time and can return to winning ways in these calmer waters.
