(5)

Fanaar⁷²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: Jim Crowley| T: W J Haggas| D

7/2

Dark Angel colt, cost £240,000 as a yearling. Made his experience tell at Leicester and the form has delivered mixed signals. The time was slow and he made hard work of getting on top.

Form: 41

Marhaba Milliar²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| D

11/10

Bred to be quick being by Kodiac out of smart sprinter Lady Of The Desert and a half-brother to Lowther Stakes winner Queen Kindly. Rightly awarded the race on Ascot debut and represents a stable with a 33% strike rate at this track.

Form: 1

(4)

Barys

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

7/1

Kodiac half-brother to Kempton specialist Magic Mirror. Stable having a stellar year with this age group and he holds entries in a couple of valuable end of season races.

Burning Lake⁸⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Hills

33/1

Le Havre colt, cost €310,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to two Listed level performers over 6f-1m and dam a winner over 7f. Supported ahead of York debut when last of nine and a break since suggests all was not well.

Form: 9

(2)

Global Destination

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: G Mosse| T: E A L Dunlop

25/1

260,000 gns purchase from the first crop of Slade Power out of a dam who scored over 7f and who has produced another 7f winner. Stable 2-32 with this age group in 2018.

Form:

(6)

Inosanto¹³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ryan Tate| T: P W Chapple-Hyam

66/1

Looks to be quite stoutly bred on the dam's side of his pedigree as she was a 2m winner with other staying relations prevalent in the pedigree. Down the field on Southwell debut and looks out of his depth.

Form: 5

(8)

Kersall

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P Cosgrave| T: D H Brown

80/1

By Doncaster Rover out of a moderate mare. Makes little appeal on pedigree in this company and with yard 1-38 with it's turf juveniles in the last 12 months.

Form:

(7)

Stakeholder

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: James Doyle| T: W J Haggas

3/1

210,000 gns yearling from the successful first crop of No Nay Never. Dam has produced six winners including Birdman and Predominance (who scored on debut for this stable). No surprise if he proved stronger in the market than his stablemate.

Forecasts

Marhaba Milliar (11/10), Stakeholder (3/1), Fanaar (7/2), Barys (7/1), Global Destination (25/1), Burning Lake (33/1), Inosanto (66/1), Kersall (80/1)

Barys and Stakeholder are interesting newcomers from big yards getting a useful 6lb allowance from the two previous winners. William Haggas was not over-enthusiastic after Fanaar's Leicester success when saying his team had plenty of work to do with him. The form does not look anything special and the time was slow. MARHABA MILLIAR was awarded the race on his debut after being impeded by the favourite who also had the benefit of a previous run. Given his pedigree he ought to be smart and he can be another winner for a trainer who is 12-38 with this age group in 2018.
