War Command half-brother to 3 winners, including smart 1m-1½m winner Elektrum (US Grade 2 winner). Yard 4-23 with juveniles this season, and this colt makes a fair bit of appeal on paper.
First foal of a fair 1¼m winner, and second-season sire Mazameer has yet to produce anything of note. Best watched, for all yard can ready one.
Sea The Moon half-brother to low-grade 1½m winner Deep Blue Diamond. Makes limited appeal at this trip on debut, and yard 0-27 with 2-y-o runners this year.
Cost 230,000 gns and related to several useful winners, out of a 1m winner. Powerful yard 0-17 with juveniles in 2018, but folly to ignore this Exceed And Excel colt on debut.
Kodiac colt who fetched 48,000 gns at the breeze-ups. Dam just a fair winner, but half-sister to useful sprinter Masta Plasta. Yard's three juvenile winners this year all had the benefit of previous experience.
Oasis Dream colt out of a half-sister to champion sprinter Reverence, and cost £190,000 as a yearling. Yard has near 14% strike rate with 2-y-o newcomers, and this colt catches the eye on breeding. Respected.
52,000gns yearling by first season sire War Command. Badly in need of experience when well beaten on debut at Newmarket recently, and looks in need of time.
From family of owner's Haydock Sprint Cup winner Tante Rose, and dam (a 6f winner) has produced a winner over 1m. Yard just 1-36 with 2-y-o newcomers in last two years, though, so likely to need the experience.
Moohaajim half-brother to 9f winner Alranger out of a maiden half-sister to smart 6f/7f winner Mail The Desert. Yard in form, and can ready one (4-27 with 2-y-o newcomers here in last five years).
Tamayuz half-sister to 1¼m winner Dream Machine and 1m-1m3f winner Madeira Girl. May need further, but yard has enviable strike-rate with debutants, so needs a market check for signs of confidence.
Lethal Force filly who has finished well held in a couple of C&D events already; makes little appeal, but at least she knows her way around.
Appeals on paper, being a 155,000 gns Exceed And Excel filly out of Albany Stakes fourth Switcher. Yard 1-31 with juveniles first time out in last two years, which tempers confidence, and tried in a hood for debut.
Out of a winning sister to German 1½m Group 2 winner Eye of The Tiger. Likely to need time on pedigree, and yard 0-15 with juvenile newcomers in recent seasons.
Pedigree a blend of speed and stamina, but very cheaply bought as a foal, and fitted with a hood for racecourse bow. Yard 0-50 with 2-y-o newcomers in last five years.
Kingman half-sister to outstanding juvenile sprinter Reckless Abandon among others, and yard has an excellent record with fillies on debut, so must be very high on shortlist.
First foal of owner's 6f listed winner Valonia. Represents an in-form trainer/jockey combination, and one to note in the market on debut from what appears a favourable draw.
Forecasts
Luxor (5/2), Wing Defence (7/2), Extreme Force (7/1), Wild Abandon (15/2), Lysander Belle (12/1), Dancing Jo (12/1), Fares Kodiac (16/1), Temujin (18/1), Swindler (20/1), Engrossed (25/1), Aristomachos (33/1), Michaels Choice (50/1), Skating Away (50/1), Ireland's Angel (66/1), Dark Mystique (100/1), Nabvutika (100/1)
This looks destined to be dominated by newcomers, and Reckless Abandon's half-sister WILD ABANDON makes most appeal. Wing Defence and Luxor also make plenty of appeal on paper, and are shortlisted, with Aristomachos a more left-field suggestion.
- Wild Abandon
- Wing Defence
- Luxor
