Nayslayer¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S Kirk| OR: 71

6/4

Has looked ready for this trip on last two starts. An official rating of 71 suggests he is vulnerable conceding weight in this grade.

Silkstone³⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Fahy| T: Mrs P Sly

7/1

Cost £24,000 as a breeze-up purchase and a half-brother to three winners. Made no show on debut and hard to put forward with any confidence.

Form: 6

Isle of Wolves³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle

12/1

Costy 13,000 gns and is out of a French dam, who was Listed placed before winning over an extended 1m1f. Noted making late headway on debut, but still finished too far adrift to be considered here.

Form: 3

Keep It Country Tv³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Sophie Ralston⁽⁷⁾| T: P Phelan

66/1

Already gelded son of Archipenko. Cheap purchase at just 1,000 gns and pedigree suggested trip would have been too sharp on debut. Remains hard to recommend.

Canavese

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton

8/1

£22,000 Mastercraftsman filly out of an unraced dam who has produced one winner (7f). Stable 0-18 with juveniles here since 2014.

Concello

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: Edward Greatrex| T: A Watson

6/4

€16,000 breeze-up purchase by Society Rock and half-sister to five winners. With a top yard having an excellent campaign with their youngsters and the market should be informative.

Haarriet²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: B Doyle| T: P D Evans

33/1

Fifth in a slowly run race on debut when conditions were heavy but soon in trouble at Thirsk thereafter. Will qualify for nurseries after this and will be of more interest then.

Form: 50

(8)

Harbour Times

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: P R Chamings

33/1

5,000 gns Harbour Watch newcomer related to three sprint winners. Stable better known for their exploits with older horses and a few of these are better equipped for this trip.

Penfriend

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: David Probert| T: M Blanshard

66/1

3,000 gns Penny's Picnic filly out of a French middle-distance winner. Stable are 0-50 with turf juveniles since 2014.

Forecasts

Concello (6/4), Nayslayer (6/4), Uncle Jerry (7/4), Silkstone (7/1), Canavese (8/1), Isle of Wolves (12/1), Harbour Times (33/1), Haarriet (33/1), Keep It Country Tv (66/1), Penfriend (66/1)

Nayslayer has been ready for this trip for a while but has a stiff task judged by an official rating of 71. Uncle Jerry ran slightly above that mark when chasing home a useful Archie Watson juvenile at Wolverhampton and he potentially has a stiff task in conceding 7lb to another here. CONCELLO is sure to have been well-prepared for this, with the trainer having had seven juvenile winners in the past two weeks, and that makes her the one to beat.
