Clem A⁴³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Charles Bishop| T: George Scott

50/1

Son of Helmet who ran with promise when third on debut but put in a poor performance at Newbury, albeit from a poor draw. Needs to bounce back to feature.

Form: 30

Court Poet

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby

5/4

By Dubawi out of a Giants Causeway mare and is bred to be suited by an AW surface. Represents all powerful connections who are two from three on the AW with juveniles this season. Likely to be ready on debut.

Form:

(7)

Durrell

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Jim Crowley| T: L M Cumani

25/1

Stable's runners tend to improve for their debut and may need further in due course. Worth a precautionary check in the betting.

Leroy Leroy¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: R Hannon| OR: 85

6/4

Sets a fair level of form having run into a couple of smart debutantes in two narrow defeats the last twice. His Ffos Las form has been franked by the winner being subsequently placed in Listed company.

Form: 422

(2)

On The Line^t¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: James Doyle| T: H Palmer

7/1

Didn't seem to appreciate the step up to this trip on his second start but still showed some improvement. Likely this quicker surface will suit and should be competitive in this field.

Form: 74

(5)

Poetic Hope

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: S & E Crisford

40/1

Son of Poet's Voice who is gelded ahead of this debut. Trainer's runners improve for the run but the stable are in very good form and worth keeping a close eye on in the market.

Form:

(4)

Rock Up In Style¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: C & M Johnston

9/1

Showcasing colt who cost 16,000 gns as a yearling. Green on debut but was making late progress and should improve for the experience and this extra furlong, however has plenty to find.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Court Poet (5/4), Leroy Leroy (6/4), On The Line (7/1), Rock Up In Style (9/1), Durrell (25/1), Poetic Hope (40/1), Clem A (50/1)

Leroy Leroy sets a fair standard and with his form working out well it would be no surprise to see him get off the mark in this company. COURT POET though is a fascinating debutante with this surface likely to suit. His stable already has a marker on their main rival having sent out his conqueror at Sandown and the stable can do little wrong. On Th Line can fill the places while Poetic Hope and Durrell are worth a note if attracting significant market support.
