Half brother Hansian Prince has won at 7f-1m½f, and this son of Kodiac saw his price rise from €88,000 to 185,000 gns as a yearling. Very impressive when winning on debut at Newmarket last month, and looks a pattern performer in the making.

10/1
Son of Dark Angel who showed something to work on when second of 9 to Miss Celestial in minor event at Lingfield in June, but well below that form last time, and stiff task even if bouncing back here.

Charm Spirit gelding out of a listed winner. Better effort to date when 5L sixth of 11 to Watan in maiden at Goodwood last time, and should improve again, so has place claims.

8/1
Home-bred full-brother to the useful Prince Of The Dark who scored on debut for this yard last year. Didn't get a chance to show what he could do after a slow start on racecourse bow at Salisbury last month, and this run should reveal more.

20/1
Iffraaj half-brother to useful milers Garrick and Bullingdon out of Group 3 Fred Darling winner Rimth. Just modest form in two starts to date, and any improvement likely to come when handicapping after another outing.

100/1
Captain Gerrard filly out of a triple 5f winner. Has shown more temperament than ability in two starts to date, and of no serious interest here.

First foal of a fair maiden whose best form came around 7f. One of two in the race for in-form yard, and market should help split them.

Blend a mix of speed and stamina, but he's shown little of either in three starts to date, looking slow to learn. Looks a long-term project.

Forecasts

Jash (1/8), Happy Power (9/4), Conspiritor (7/1), Flash of Power (8/1), Alsimsaam (10/1), Ginger Fox (20/1), Lethal Missile (20/1), Meraki (50/1), Grey Hare (100/1)

Verdict

JASH looked something out of the ordinary when winning on debut at Newmarket, and is hard to oppose, although the form of Happy Power's Hamilton win has been franked when Triple Distilled won well at Doncaster on Wednesday. The others seem to be facing a stiff task, with Conspiritor looking the pick
  1. Jash
  2. Happy Power
  3. Conspiritor
