Lowther entry who was heavily backed ahead of a successful AW debut when accounting for her market rival. Made all that day on conditions she was equipped to handle but different to what she encounters here.
Not beaten far when last of three to two more experienced rivals on debut. Looked in need of the experience and is bred to handle the ground. Stable 3-9 with this age group here.
Havana Gold colt out of an unraced dam who is related to a useful French middle-distance winner. Will need further in time and the market is going to be a guide here.
Bated Breath colt cost 45,000 gns and is half-brother to a Listed winner. Showed up well on debut until lack of a run told and arrives here with his yard 5-16 in past fortnight. Stable have a 4-13 record with this age group here since 2014.
Henrythenavigator gelding cost just 1,500 guineas as a yearling and has finished last on each start. Cheekpieces will have to produce a dramatic amount of improvement.
Showed some ability on debut but much less so next time. May be of more interest in a nursery.
€28,000 colt from the first crop of Gale Force Ten. Dam has produced two winners including Mutawatheb who was a useful juvenile for this yard. Plenty of clues in the pedigree show he will handle the ground and trainer 5-18 here with this age group.
75,000 gns son of mudloving Garswood out of a dam who was a 5f AW winner. Yard 0-5 with this age group in 2018 and he too may need the run.
Dandy Man colt whose sale price rocketed from 52,000 gns as a foal to €240,000 as a yearling. Has been noted making late headway on both starts and looks a likely type for a nursery at some point.
Stimulation filly out of a winning half-sister to owners' Group 3 5f winner Just Glamorous. The speed in the pedigree has not been evident thus far.
Showed some improvement on nursery debut and receives a useful allowance. Unproven on ground this soft and there may be others open to more improvement.
Forecasts
Isaan Queen (9/4), Hold Still (11/4), Barossa Red (9/2), Sufficient (6/1), Triggered (9/1), Tanqeeb (11/1), Derry Boy (25/1), Summa Force (25/1), Peters Pudding (50/1), Glamorous Crescent (100/1), Keston Warrior (100/1)
Isaan Queen will be fancied to follow up her debut success and a Group 2 entry suggests she is smart. Conditions here are going to be vastly different if remaining on the soft side and she may be worth taking on with HOLD STILL. Bill Muir's expensive purchase showed speed on his debut and the yard are in much better form now. His relatives have coped with an easy surface and he may be a viable each-way alternative. Summa Force and Tanqeeb are interesting debutants with a soft ground pedigree, as is the case with Barossa Red who will come on from his debut.
