Arden Warrior³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A Watson| OR: 78

4/5

War Command colt who has been placed in two of his four starts and possibly didn't relish the AW track at Chelmsford last time. Big shout on previous seconds at Epsom and Beverley and has a great chance to get off the mark.

Form: 5225

(1)

Highway Robbery⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Milly Naseb⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss J Feilden

33/1

Dick Turpin colt who has shown little to write home about in two starts to date and looks set to struggle once again.

Form: 08

(2)

Rosamour¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 70

1/1

Cheaply bought Paco Boy filly who has produced good efforts when second at Newmarket and Wolverhampton of late. Getting plenty of weight she may well be able to get off the mark.

Form: 522

Forecasts

Arden Warrior (4/5), Rosamour (1/1), Highway Robbery (33/1)

There may not be much to choose between ROSAMOUR and Arden Warrior, with narrow preference for the former who can make the most of the weight she receives. Arden Warrior is a big danger and if it becomes tactical he could prevail, but Highway Robbery looks outclassed on the evidence of his two runs so far.
