Clap Your Hands¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Shepherd| T: D M Simcock

11/1

Slowly away at long odds and never got involved on this month's Lingfield debut. Remains best watched with big improvement required.

Form: 5

Dark Miracle¹²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Botti

1/2

Built on promise of November's debut when a keeping on second at Kempton in the same month. Should be suited by the step up in distance and sets the standard.

Form: 62-

Frenchmans Creek¹⁰⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Raul Da Silva| T: S Durack

33/1

Made no impression in two starts for Jose Santos last year and now gelded ahead of stable debut. Much more required.

Just Benjamin¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Liam Jones| T: W J Haggas

7/2

Caught the eye running on over 7f off a slow pace on debut and with plenty of stamina in his pedigree is likely to improve now up in trip. Likely to go close for powerful stable.

Form: 8

Risk Mitigation¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: P D Evans

25/1

Sent off at long odds in both starts this year and never got involved in either. Good jockey booking but easy to overlook for now.

Form: 09

Tribune²⁷⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: B A Curtis| T: S Kirk

20/1

Cost 20,000gns but well-held on only start last June. Gelded since and not certain to be suited by the step up in distance. Others preferred.

Form: 5-

Yellow Label

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding

8/1

Well-bred son of Hong Kong Mile winner Hat Trick on debut. Eye-catching jockey booking for stable going well and very much one to note.

Peripherique

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: L Morris| T: J M P Eustace

33/1

Daughter of Champs Elysees, a half-sister to four winners and cost 7,500gns as a yearling. Possesses stamina in her pedigree for this trip and market likely the best guide on debut.

Forecasts

Dark Miracle (1/2), Just Benjamin (7/2), Yellow Label (8/1), Clap Your Hands (11/1), Tribune (20/1), Risk Mitigation (25/1), Frenchmans Creek (33/1), Peripherique (33/1)

There's little depth so market support for the very nicely-bred Yellow Label would be of interest. Dark Miracle sets the standard of those with experience although his stable a struggling for winners and JUST BENJAMIN is taken to improve past him following a promising debut.
