Cognac Blue⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: Sebastian Woods⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 61| D

6/1

Battled on strongly to win a Redcar claimer and built on that again with a good third back in handicap company at Leicester. Progressive and likely to go close again.

14/1

Boasts solid course form with a win and a second from two visits here, however, didn't look suited by the step up to this trip at Lingfield and may be better suited by 6f.

Drummer Jack^t⁹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Watson| T: W R Muir| OR: 60

7/1

Some promise in first two starts before a disappointing run at Sandown. Starts life in handicaps on a realistic mark and improvement not out of the question.

Form: 680

Orchid Killer^b1²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽⁵⁾| T: A Watson| OR: 60

8/1

Promise in first three starts before a poor run when pulling too hard over this trip at Kempton. Needs first-time blinkers to help her settle better.

Form: 3360

Rajman^h1²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: J Mitchell| T: Tom Clover| OR: 57

6/1

Possibilities based on his two seconds over this trip at Kempton before a poor run at Wolverhampton. Well drawn to attack but needs to find extra in first-time hood.

Fast Endeavour^v⁵⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Ray Dawson⁽⁵⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 56

14/1

Eight-race maiden but edging down in the weights now. Form has moved in the wrong direction the last twice and others look stronger.

Pretty Eyes^b1¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 56

10/1

Put in an improved performance upped to this trip on handicap debut when sitting on a fast pace. Should have more to offer in first-time blinkers and could prove competitive.

Rusper Dreams⁷⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D C Costello| T: J A Osborne| OR: 55

14/1

Sent off at very long odds on all four starts to date when well held. Needs to find plenty on handicap debut with wide draw a negative.

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: S M Levey| T: D R C Elsworth| OR: 51

33/1

Showed some improvement when a close fourth in a seller but plenty more required on handicap debut in first-time cheekpieces.

Treasured Company¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: F Norton| T: R C Guest| OR: 51

Progressed nicely on handicap debut when one place behind Pretty Eyes. Weighted to get closer but wide draw a big negative.

Eye Of The Water⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: David Probert| T: R Harris| OR: 50

4/1

Won a weak Ffos Las handicap but did appear to take a step forward back in novice company last time. Could be competitive if building on that but stamina over this trip remains a concern.

Form: 041836

Feel The Noize¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: R Havlin| T: Rae Guest| OR: 50

8/1

Needs to improve on what we've seen in handicap company so far and held in selling company latest. Others preferred.

Forecasts

Eye Of The Water (4/1), Budaiya Fort (11/2), Rajman (6/1), Cognac Blue (6/1), Drummer Jack (7/1), Feel The Noize (8/1), Orchid Killer (8/1), Caramel Curves (8/1), Treasured Company (10/1), Pretty Eyes (10/1), Liberata Bella (12/1), Rusper Dreams (14/1), Valley Belle (14/1), Fast Endeavour (14/1), Breezing (25/1), Bridlemere Court (33/1)

Cognac Blue is very much moving in the right direction and looks likely to go close once again. Drummer Jack could be better drawn but looks the type to improve now going handicapping. Preference is for PRETTY EYES who did well to finish as close as she did last time when sitting on a very strong pace and can progress in first-time headgear.
