(10)

Awe

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: James Doyle| T: W J Haggas

5/1

Son of Bated Breath whose price rose from 17,000 gns as a foal to 120,000 gns as a yearling. Interesting debutante for leading stable who remain in good form.

Form:

(3)

Azano

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: N Mackay| T: J & T Gosden

20/1

Oasis Dream colt who will likely be better over a bit further in time but looks a likely type on paper for powerful stable who won this in 2010 and 2011.

Form:

(11)

Fantastic Blue²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: G Mosse| T: I Mohammed & J Santos

14/1

Iffraaj colt cost 100,000gns as a yearling and was making late headway when green on debut. Showed promise for the future but this company likely to prove too tough at this stage.

Form: 5

(4)

Fares Poet

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: M M Monaghan⁽³⁾| T: M Botti

40/1

Nicely bred son of Poet's Voice for a stable who can produce decent juveniles. Price rose from 14,000 gns as a yearling to 27,000 gns as a two-year-old and worth a check in the market on debut.

Form:

(1)

Lehoogg

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Varian

14/1

By Bated Breath, cost 85,000 gns as a yearling and possesses plenty of speed in pedigree. Stable won this in 2016 and a likely type on debut.

Form:

(13)

Millions Memories¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: P Cosgrave| T: D R Lanigan

40/1

Zoffany colt whose sales price almost doubled to 130,000 gns as a yearling. Not fancied when well held on debut and likely a longer term prospect.

Form: 6

(2)

Rock The Cradle

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Harry Bentley| T: E F Vaughan

50/1

Son of Ruler Of The World who is gelded ahead of debut. Stable capable of readying a juvenile but others appeal more on paper.

Form:

(6)

Snow Storm

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: H Crouch| T: S bin Suroor

10/1

Well-bred son of Slade Power whose price rose from 34,000 gns as a foal to 72,000 gns as a yearling. Powerful stable continue in good form and one to note on debut.

Form:

(12)

Sovereign Grant¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: R L Moore| T: Sir Michael Stoute

4/6

Entered in the Dewhurst and the Derby and represents a leading stable who won a division of this last year. Ran with great promise when staying on and short of room on debut and sets the standard.

Form: 4

(8)

Wiretap¹¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Oisin Murphy| T: D M Simcock

8/1

Well fancied when disappointing on debut, however he was green and the form is strong with the winner subsequently second in the Gimcrack. Could leave that performance behind following a break.

Form: 5

(5)

Garrel Glen

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Louis Steward| T: M H Tompkins

100/1

Daughter of Mount Nelson is likely to need a stiffer test of stamina further down the line. Stable not noted for two-year-old winners and best watched on debut.

Form:

Non-Runners

(7)

Dark Mystique¹⁶

Weight: 9-5| Age: 2

T: D K Ivory J: Jack Duern

(9)

Forecasts

Sovereign Grant (4/6), Awe (5/1), Wiretap (8/1), Snow Storm (10/1), Reeves (10/1), Lehoogg (14/1), Fantastic Blue (14/1), Azano (20/1), Flaunt It (25/1), Dark Mystique (33/1), Millions Memories (40/1), Fares Poet (40/1), Rock The Cradle (50/1), Greek Kodiac (50/1), Garrel Glen (100/1)

Another interesting division to a traditionally strong maiden with again some interesting debutantes from powerful stables in the form of Snow Storm, Awe, Lehoog, Azano and Fares Poet. They will have to be smart though to get the better of SOVEREIGN GRANT who was unlucky not to get closer on debut and his trainer's horses generally improve considerably for the run. Reeves is the most experienced but ran in a good race last time and is improving. The betting suggested Wiretap had been showing plenty at home before his debut which has produced good winners since.
