Sister to Amberine - a winner over 51/2f for this yard as a four-year-old - as well as being a half-sister to Titus Secret, a 6f winner on the AW. Yard quiet and likely the filly will be a lot sharper for a run.
Won well on debut at Windsor but was found out in a decent race at York last summer. Significant drop in class here and has to merit an interest. Top yard going well just now. A player.
Seventh of 13 here on debut over C&D needs to be improved upon. His dam is a half-sister to classy miler Soviet Song; reasonable to expect the gelding will do better over slightly further when he steps into handicaps.
Cost 33,000 gns and is a half-brother to French 5f winner My Sapphire and Duck Egg Blkue, a winner over 7f and a mile; his dam also won over 1m. Yard always respected with debutantes. A betting check can help.
Cost €36,000 as a yearling; debut run was a quiet introduction over C&D but the gelding still needs to step up on that run by some way. Might just need more experience.
Winners in his pedigree and showed some improvement from his debut run when third over an extended 9f at Wolverhampton last month. Might already need a longer trip.
Solid effort at Newcastle in January was a marked improvement from the colt's debut in Newmarket maiden at the back end of the last turf season. He's a brother to Group 1 winner Dick Whittington as well as a winner on the AW; one to consider.
Bred to get at least a mile and half and very possible this is a bit of a fact finding mission over this trip. Worth a betting check but the fitting of a hood on his debut run is off-putting.
Got going late in the day on debut at Lingfield (over 1m) last month; and should have more to offer. Breeding suggests a longer trip could be beneficial though.
Dam made little impact in middle distance maidens and this fellow was also hardly an eye-catcher on debut over C&D last November. Big improvement required.
Not much to take as a positive from two well beaten starts over C&D since the turn of the year (both at odds of 100/1); very hard to recommend here too.
Forecasts
Masaru (1/3), You Little Ripper (7/2), Cristal Breeze (7/1), Circle Of Stars (14/1), George Formby (25/1), Bighearted (33/1), Huddle (40/1), Tribune (66/1), Je M'en Fous (100/1), Scarlet Red (100/1), Storm Girl (150/1)
MASARU, who is out of a half-sister to classy sprinter Swiss lake, was a comfortable winner on debut last season and was then a well backed favourite for a valuable race at York last August. This is a lot easier than that Knavesmire assignment and the colt can get his season off to a flyer if he's trained on. You Little Ripper posted an improved effort last time and is respected as a big threat to the selection, while Cristal Breeze appeals on breeding and is an interesting debutante to note in the betting.
