Odds
Horse A-Z
Well-bred colt by War Front out of Immortal Verse. Stable also have fellow newcomer Fightwithme and are well capable of producing a smart juvenile on debut.

Son of Mastercraftsmen was slowly away and never a factor on recent debut at Leicester. Needs to leave that behind.

Price rose from E12,000 as a yearling to £40,000 as a juvenile. Trainer's runners tend to benefit for their first run and he's bred to be better over further in time.

Newcomer by Shamardal and out of Music Show, who was a Group 2 winner as a juvenile and won the Group 1 Falmouth Stakes. Stable also run Battle For Glory but looks the main hope based on jockey bookings.

11/2
Exceed and Excel colt who has been well held in both starts here and lost his action last time. Gelded since and more required in first-time hood.
Fetched 4,000gns as a yearling and £14,000 at two. Sent off at triple-figure odds on debut when finishing last. Significant improvement required.

20/1
Son of No Nay Never purchased for 110,000gns as a yearling. One to note in the market but represents a stable that is very quiet at present.

80/1
£30,000 juvenile and half-brother to four winners. Was too green to do himself justice at Kempton and while his stable's runners can leave their debuts behind, he's probably one to take on again.

12/1
By Oasis Dream out of a Montjeu mare and cost 50,000gns as a yearling. May find this on the sharp side on debut but worth a market check.

Horse silk
9/2
Son of Teofilo who makes debut for last year's winning stable. Should improve over further in time but looks the trainer's first string (also races Orliko and Purbeck Hills) based on jockey bookings. Betting should prove informative.

Likely type on breeding being by Dark Angel and a half-brother to five winners including Jacqueline Quest, who was relegated to second in the 1000 Guineas Stable also runs fellow debutante Destination.

Forecasts

Fightwithme (5/2), Desert Land (7/2), Real Smooth (9/2), Journey Of Life (11/2), Destination (13/2), Smarter (7/1), City Master (15/2), Delachance (17/2), Purbeck Hills (12/1), Battle For Glory (16/1), Onebaba (20/1), Battle Of Waterloo (25/1), Keith (33/1), Orliko (80/1), Mukha Magic (100/1)

Verdict

There's some very interesting debutantes on show which include the well-bred stablemates Smarter and Destination, with the market likely to provide the best indications of what is expected. They represent a powerful stable as do Battle For Glory and Fightwithme with the latter the preference of the duo. The form of the first start of DESERT LAND could hardly have worked out any better and he looks only likely to benefit for the experience.
  1. Desert Land
  2. Smarter
  3. Fightwithme
