Odds
Horse A-Z
Pivotal gelding that is bred to be fairly useful. Cost 11,500 gns at the sales in October. Yard do well in the this sphere and market check needed.

Horse silk
2/1
Half-brother to winners Beautiful Day (5f-8.6f AW inc Fibresand), Moonlight Venture (7f-1m AW inc Fibresand) and Beyond The Clouds (useful bumper/2m hurdle). Dam placed 1m2f AW. Market check.

6/1
Maxios colt that cost €60,000 as a yearling but only fetched 1,500 gns at the sales in November. Quite possibly had some issues and probably best watched.
Oasis Dream gelding that cost a hefty packet as a foal (220,000gns). Half-brother to a couple of winners on the flat and dam was unraced. Market will be a good guide to expectations on debut.

20/1
Intello gelding that was picked up for £5,000 at the sales in August. Bred to be useful on the flat and interesting to see what the market makes of him.
Rock Of Gibraltar gelding who was a very cheap purchase at just 2,700 gns. Dam was unplaced on the flat. Limited appeal on debut.
7
Horse silk
7/1
Nathaniel filly that cost 6,000 gns as a yearling. Dam was a winner on the AW and is a half-sister to Grade 2 winner Midnight Line. market check needed.
Champs Elysees filly that only cost 800 gns. Hard to fancy on debut and probably best watched for now unless market screams her name.
So You Think filly that cost 52,000 gns as a yearling. Half-sister to plenty of winners including Balty Boys and Shore Step. Yard do well here and market check needed.
Not the usual type of runner for this yard and hard to see this second foal of an unraced dam being good enough to cope with some well-bred types on debut.
Champs Elysees filly who only cost 5,000 gns as a yearling. Half-sister to several winners on the flat. Dam was a 1m winner. market a good guide.

Forecasts

Carry On (2/1), Invisible Shadow (4/1), Beast Of Belstane (4/1), Fumarole (6/1), Aerodrome (7/1), Hamilton Island (12/1), Roue De Charrette (16/1), Paris Dixie (16/1), Peloric (20/1), Rebel Rock (25/1), Gift From Paris (66/1)

Verdict

BEAST OF BELSTANE has a nice pedigree and his yard do well in this sphere. He is taken to make a winning start. Hamilton Island is another who's yard do well in this sphere and is respected but as always with these types of event, the market will be a very good guide.
  1. Beast Of Belstane
  2. Hamilton Island
  3. Carry On
