20/1
Cost 130,000 guineas as a yearling and looked likely to benefit for debut for William Haggas last July but has presumably had his problems since. Sold for £10,000 in January and may be best watched on stable debut.

16/1
Kyllachy colt who cost 260,000gns as a yearling. Full-brother to two Group 2 winners but failed to make an impression in two starts for Kevin Prendergast in Ireland last year. Sold for £4,000 since and hard to fancy on British debut.

20/1
Swiss Spirit filly, cost €34,000 as a yearling and made a promising start at Navan in May 2017. Regressive in three starts since and sold for 1,000gns after finishing tailed-off at Navan last April. Hard to make a case for on stable debut.

11/2
Gelded son of Sepoy out of a dam who was third in the 1000 Guineas and has run to a similar standard in two close-up efforts so far. Blessed with plenty of speed and likely to see out his races better with time. Should be competitive.

Best effort came over this trip at Newcastle but big question marks on two poor runs here either side. Plenty of improvement required despite good draw.

8/11
Cost €26,000 as a yearling and sets a clear standard on two narrow defeats over 6f here and over further in France. Unlucky not to have broken through here two starts back and looks a winner waiting to happen.
Daughter of Slade Power whose price increased from €20,000 as a foal to €60,000 as a yearling. Bred for speed and well drawn on debut for a stable in-form. Well worth a check in the betting.

3/1
75,000gns yearling; third foal; half-sister to the 6f AW juvenile winner Walaa. Showed improvement from narrow debut Newcastle defeat to run a decent fourth in a strong maiden over 6f here. Worth the drop in trip and likely to go close.

Forecasts

Glorious Emaraty (8/11), Wise Words (3/1), Brigadier (11/2), Bedtime Bella (8/1), Tabaahy (16/1), Alqaab (20/1), Crown Leah (20/1), Ghost Buy (33/1)

Verdict

Wise Words has speed and could be suited by the drop to the minimum distance for an in-form stable. Bedtime Bella is a very interesting newcomer but it's going to take a good performance to beat GLORIOUS EMARATY who sets a clear standard.
  1. Glorious Emaraty
  2. Wise Words
  3. Bedtime Bella
