Damon Runyon^p1²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 80| BF

10/3

Sandown second two runs back rates the best piece of form on offer but was well below that on soft ground at Windsor. Every chance on nursery debut but is proving hard to predict.

Form: 4425

Eesha's Smile³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 80| BF

9/1

Toronado filly who won her first two before a most disappointing short-priced favourite at Pontefract. on her first handicap start. That leaves a significant question mark.

Form: 116

(5)

Aspire Tower²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Bentley| T: R Hannon| OR: 80| BF

5/4

Not beaten far on latest three runs showing progress on each occasion. Proven on soft ground and kept on at Windsor as though this extra furlong will help. Should be involved.

Form: 6223

(6)

Caplin³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: David Egan| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 75

9/1

Improved with each start and bred to need a test of stamina so drop from 1m2f not necessarily a plus on handicap debut. More required.

Form: 082

(4)

Aubretia²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: R Hannon| OR: 73

8/1

By Poet's Voice, she fetched €80,000 as a yearling and ran her best race of three over 7f here. Bred to appreciate this longer trip and rallied late as though it would also suit. Likely to improve on handicap debut.

Form: 497

(3)

One To Go^b²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Rachel Richardson| T: T D Easterby| OR: 72

9/1

Eight-race maiden who has run to a similar level on his two latest thirds, however vulnerable to improving types and yet to race on a soft surface.

Form: 422933

(7)

Glutnforpunishment^v1³⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: George Wood| T: N P Littmoden| OR: 65

33/1

Well-held on handicap debut at Chelmsford and has been easy to back on all four starts to date. Visor replaces hood and best watched until signs of encouragement.

Form: 7058

Forecasts

Aspire Tower (5/4), Damon Runyon (10/3), Aubretia (8/1), One To Go (9/1), Caplin (9/1), Eesha's Smile (9/1), Glutnforpunishment (33/1)

A tight race where if Damon Runyon bounced back to his best form he would be the one to beat but although it's early days he's proving inconsistent. Aubretia is interesting over this longer distance on handicap debut while likewise stablemate ASPIRE TOWER should have more to offer for a stronger test of stamina and is likeably progressive.
