16/1
Mastercraftsman half-brother to useful 7f/1m winner Lanansaak and 1m½f winner Estebsaal. Some promise on debut but would needs significant improvement for a stable out of form at present.

4/1
Headed late on when showing big improvement first to second start over two furlongs further at Bath. Quick ground seemed to suit so drying conditions would be a plus. Rates a leading contender.

7/4
Son of Camelot who cost 62,000 gns as a yearling. Only likely to improve having looked in need of experience on debut and did some good late work that suggested this trip will only help. Looks a live danger.

Ede's
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-2| J: Paddy Bradley(5)| T: P Phelan
100/1
Sir Percy colt who doesn't catch they eye over a trip likely too short on debut. Looks a stiff task and best watched.

Enhanced
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: H Morrison
100/1
Son of New Approach, is bred to need further in time and stable hasn't really fired with their juveniles this campaign. Others preferred on debut.

10/1
€500,000 purchase by Dabirsim was well fancied on disappointing debut at Ffos Las. Left that behind when well suited by soft ground and unlucky not to win at Windsor and should only improve. Likely to be involved again.
Nicely bred Australia colt who cost €270,000 as a yearling. Will benefit with extra test of stamina in time but worth noting on debit.

Mostawaa
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-2| J: Fran Berry| T: H Main
100/1
By Poet's Voice and gelded ahead of debut. Cheap purchase at £7,000 and stable not noted for juvenile winners. Easy to overlook.

Horse silk
25/1
Son of Lavre who is bred to appreciate further in time. Looks the type to watch on debut for a stable who could be in better form.

Sezim
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-2| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Varian
12/1
Dansili colt out of an unraced dam by Daylami. Represents a strong stable on debut and looks one to very much note in the betting.

Horse silk
20/1
Giant's Causeway colt who will need a stiffer test of stamina in due course. Cost $65,000 as a yearling and 65,000 gns as a two-year-old and best watched unless significant support on debut.

Tigerskin
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett
12/1
By Nathaniel out of a Danehill mare who only cost 9,000 gns as a foal. Stable in decent form so worth a precautionary market check.

Horse silk
50/1
Sea The Stars colt whose price rose from 110,000 gns as a foal to 145,000 gns as a yearling. Stable having a quiet season with their juveniles and market may prove informative on debut.

Gamba23

50/1
Full-sister to useful juvenile performer Gibeon who shaped with great promise on debut that would put her right in this. However was subsequently most disappointing at Salisbury and likely best watched on that.

Forecasts

Current Option (7/4), Craster (4/1), High Commissioner (5/1), Good Birthday (10/1), Sezim (12/1), Tigerskin (12/1), Babbo's Boy (16/1), State Of Affair (20/1), Qarasu (25/1), Bartimaeus (33/1), Youarestar (50/1), Gamba (50/1), Mostawaa (100/1), Ede's (100/1), Enhanced (100/1)

Verdict

Craster seemed to really enjoy the quicker conditions on his second start and may need the ground to dry significantly to be at his very best, however he really did improve from his debut. In contrast GOOD BIRTHDAY may not want it too quick but would have won with a clear run on his second start and has to rate as the leading contender off the back of it. Current Option caught the eye staying on strongly on debut and rates the main danger. Sezim is the pick of the newcomers.
