Mohogany³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J Mitchell| T: P W Chapple-Hyam| OR: 69

9/1

Shaped a lot better without the blinkers last time and left the impression this extra furlong would help. Clear possibilities in a modest race, but the weight concession is a worry given the progress others are likely to make.

Form: 894

Lonely Boy¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: C Lee⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke

13/8

8,500 gns Lethal Force gelding out of a dam who won over 1m-1m2f. Gave evidence of that stamina on Haydock debut when staying on nicely for third under a considerate ride. Stable 3-10 with juveniles here since 2014.

Form: 3

Taylormade⁷⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R Havlin| T: M Moubarak

20/1

Made his debut at Newmarket when a well-beaten ninth of fourteen. Needs to have derived a lot from the experience.

Form: 9

Curfewed¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: J F Egan| T: M R Channon| OR: 75

9/2

Clear signs he was getting the hang of things last time and well drawn here if ridden more positively. Stable 21-101 with this age group in 2018.

Form: 773

Highway Robbery⁵⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Milly Naseb⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss J Feilden

200/1

Stamina in the pedigree so little surprise she showed little over 6f on debut. Will do better in time and probably one for a nursery later in the year.

Form: 0

Master Matt

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: E J Walsh⁽³⁾| T: D P Quinn

125/1

€700 son of Slade Power out of a 6f winning sprinter. This trip looks a worry given his pedigree and a poor draw does not help either.

Weld Aldar

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: T P Queally| T: M L W Bell

16/1

3,500gns colt from the first crop of Universal and out of a modest dam. Stable in good form currently and 9-46 with juveniles this year.

Beryl The Petal¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: C J McGovern⁽⁵⁾| T: D O'Meara| OR: 72| BF

4/1

Has run to a similar level in all three starts but one that gives her every chance in this grade. Rider has been getting more opportunities and easy to see the combination going close.

Form: 333

(8)

Elysian Lady¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Rossa Ryan⁽³⁾| T: M Wigham

14/1

12,000 gns Champs Elysees filly with speed on the dam's side of the pedigree. Never a factor in a better race than this on debut but likely to do better in nurseries.

Form: 7

(4)

Look Sharp³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: George Wood| T: Dr J D Scargill

100/1

Dandy Man filly was last of eight on debut when 50/1 and she needs to have come on a lot for that and stable have a better record with their older horses.

Form: 8

(9)

Red Armour

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Danny Brock| T: J Ryan

66/1

1,200 gns daughter of Nayef related to a couple of winning sprinters in France. Represents last year's winning stable but pedigree suggests she may find the trip too far.

Form:

(10)

Swerved³³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Shane Gray| T: Ollie Pears

12/1

Outran odds of 100/1 on Newcastle debut when a staying on third. The form has substance and she has an obvious chance if running to a similar level.

Form: 3

Forecasts

Lonely Boy (13/8), Beryl The Petal (4/1), Curfewed (9/2), Mohogany (9/1), Swerved (12/1), Elysian Lady (14/1), Weld Aldar (16/1), Taylormade (20/1), Bug Boy (25/1), Ignatius (33/1), Red Armour (66/1), Look Sharp (100/1), Master Matt (125/1), Highway Robbery (200/1)

Lonely Boy probably had little behind him when an eyecatching third on his debut when behind two fitter rivals. The extra furlong is sure to help but CURFEWED receives a couple of pounds from him and is more favourably drawn. Mick Channon has had a good year with this crop of youngsters and his son of Most Improved showed considerable improvement last time. Beryl The Petal looks capable of making the frame yet again and Swerved was 100/1 when making an unexpected promising debut behind two decent sorts. Mahogany will appreciate the seventh furlong and is clearly progressing, but the weight concession sets him a difficult task.
