7/2
Kempton novice winner (7f) who went close under her penalty at Lingfield last time. Looks the one to beat on that evidence.

8/1
Went close in a Redcar maiden on debut (7f) in September, but below that level when last seen at Chantilly. Still early days and now has first run on AW, needing improvement to go close.

€25,000 two-year-old. Dam placed 1m AW, half-sister to US dirt Grade 1 winners Meadow Breeze (7f at two) and Overanalyze (1m1f) and 1m½f dirt winner/Florida Derby second Majesto. Market check on debut.

First foal. Dam tough 6f-1m2½f winner (inc at two/AW), is granddaughter of unraced sister to 1m2f Grade 1 winner Urgent Request and half-sister to smart Flat stayer/2m-2m4f hurdler Sanmartino. Another one to note in the market.

14th foal. Half-brother to winners Bathwick Bear (5f-6f inc at two/Listed), Folio (5f-1m2f inc at two), Aroundthebay (6f inc at two/AW), Ribbleton (6f at two) & Bay Laurel (7f AW at two). Dam 5f winner at two. Could go well on debut.

14-1 and 7L fifth on debut at Leicester (7f, good to soft) last month. Hood now fitted. Should be capable of improvement, but likely to need a significant amount to win this time.

3/1
Showed improved form when going close at Doncaster (6f, soft) last time, on his handicap debut. Looks likely to be a contender back in this sphere, especially if he can come on again.
33-1 and never able to get in a blow when 14L fifth here over 7f on debut. Can only watch.

33-1 and well beaten on debut at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last month. Drops in trip, but plenty more needed.

Horse silk
100/1
First foal. Dam well beaten bumpers/1m2f maiden, out of US 6f stakes winning half-sister to US 6f two-year-old Grade 3 winner Chandtrue. Stable not known for its debut winners, so probably one to watch first time.
33-1 on debut, when not devoid of promise over 6f (soft) at Redcar last month. Should come on for that and is not ruled out of the frame this time.

Horse silk
25/1
7th foal. Half-sister to five winners inc Red Galileo (1m AW at two/1m6f), Okavango (1m4f AW), Okimono (UAE 6f/7f AW) & Jintshi (1m½f AW/1m2f dirt). Dam 1m4f winner. Looks well worth a market check ahead of her debut.

Forecasts

Revolutionise (11/8), St Peters Basilica (3/1), Alexa Rose (7/2), Absolutio (8/1), Heath Charnock (20/1), Ivory Charm (25/1), Divied (40/1), Dutch Pursuit (66/1), Uh Oh Chongo (66/1), Yorkshire Flyer (66/1), I'll Be Brief (100/1), West Drive Story (100/1), Firsteen (100/1), Havana Bay (250/1)

Verdict

This looks likely to be a match between St Peters Basilica, who improved last time and looks a major player, and ALEXA ROSE, whose last run was probably the best form in the field so far, given that she carried a penalty. She is taken to defy her penalty this time. Otherwise, it is the debutants that hold most interest, and in particular both Heath Charnock and, to a lesser extent, Divied. I'll Be Brief is not written off.
  1. Alexa Rose
  2. St Peters Basilica
  3. Heath Charnock
