Creek Harbour⁵⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 71

7/2

Kodiac gelding, cost €25,000 as a foal and 200,000 gns as a yearling. Best effort came on debut and not so good the last twice. Needs to get back to debut form.

Form: 487

Dunstall Dreamer

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Aaron Jones⁽³⁾| T: D P Quinn

50/1

Cheap purchase at just 8,000 gns as a yearling. Dam an unraced half-sister to winners Nordic Project and Nordic Isle. Market good guide on debut.

Hellofagame¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: R J Price

125/1

Hellvelyn gelding. First foal of a dam who won six times in her career at sprint trips. Beaten a long way on debut over C&D and needs plenty more.

Ice Cool Cullis¹²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Liam Jones| T: D M Loughnane

50/1

Half-brother to the useful sprinter Koropick. 100/1 and tailed off on debut at Nottingham back in August. Likely that handicaps will be the target further down the line.

Form: 9

My Town Chicago

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Mitchell| T: K FrostWS

18/1

Medaglia d'Oro colt who fetched 52,000gns as a two-year-old and is a brother to a winner over 1m4f. Quite attractive on paper, but makes his debut after wind surgery and is probably best watched.

Show The Money⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Darragh Keenan⁽⁵⁾| T: E Stanford

10/1

Out of a maiden half-sister to two winners. Stable has not had a three-year-old winner since 2013 but showed improved form on second start when a close third at Kempton (6f). That's the best form on offer here and player if improvement continues.

Form: 03

Stand N Deliver¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox

6/1

Gelded son of Dick Turpin out of a 5f winner. Two good efforts so far but needs improvement. Long way behind the winner when second over C&D latest. Player with further progress.

Form: 42

(8)

Farl²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: L P Keniry| T: E Walker

25/1

Cape Cross filly who is a half sister to several winners including Newstead Abbey and Coprah. Well held here on debut and needs a big step forward.

Form: 0

(3)

Maddi²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Isobel Francis⁽⁷⁾| T: L A Dace

150/1

Her dam was a winner over both 5f and 6f and was out of useful winner Lacinia, who had winning form between 6f and 1m3f. Tailed off on both starts so far and needs major improvement.

Form: 7-0

(12)

Sunbright

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: L Morris| T: M Appleby

12/1

Dawn Approach filly that was picked up cheaply (4,000 gns) by shrewd connections having not made the racecourse for Godolphin. Should know job on debut and market check needed.

Form:

(5)

Tiger Eye

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: George Wood| T: J R Fanshawe

10/11

Frankel filly with a very nice pedigree. Cost 260,000 gns as a yearling and has found a fairly weak race to start her career. Should be capable of being involved on debut.

Non-Runners

Forecasts

Tiger Eye (10/11), Creek Harbour (7/2), Stand N Deliver (6/1), Show The Money (10/1), Sunbright (12/1), Irish Charm (16/1), My Town Chicago (18/1), Farl (25/1), Ice Cool Cullis (50/1), Dunstall Dreamer (50/1), Hellofagame (125/1), Maddi (150/1)

Show The Money and Stand N Deliver set the standard on what we have seen so far and could be vulnerable with anything with ability. Sunbright is of minor interest for Mick Appleby having not made the track for Godolphin but TIGER EYE cost 260,000 gns and the daughter of Frankel may well be up to making a winning debut.
