Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: James Doyle| T: W J Haggas| D

8/11

Clocked a good figure at Wetherby and the third has scored since. Stable 5-9 with their three-year-olds this month and he will be hard to beat despite a penalty.

Form: 51

Bated Beauty¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: T P Queally| T: J Butler

50/1

Has finished well down the field on both starts and faces a stiff task here. Likely to do better in handicaps.

Form: 0-9

Debonair Don Juan^t1¹⁸⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S Donohoe| T: E F Vaughan

40/1

Tailed off on sole start in France having cost 600,000 gns as a yearling being by Lope De Vega out of a Group 3 winning sprinter. Half-brother to an AW winner and a tongue-tie may offer some explanation for that first run.

Lambristo

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Josephine Gordon| T: J S Moore

100/1

By the speedy Bungle Inthejungle out of an unraced dam related to middle-distance winners.. Stable 4-103 with three-year-olds in novice events over the past five years.

Motfael

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J Dobbs| T: Owen Burrows

10/1

240,000 gns brother to Listed winner Extremis. Well drawn on debut but stable have been going through a quiet spell.

Noble Fox²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox

25/1

Relatively cheap son of Foxwedge who is a half-brother to an AW winner. Bred to want further than this and, although there was clear promise in his first two starts, the drop to 7f in this company counts against him.

Form: 34

Pecorino²³

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

50/1

Noticeably green on Windsor debut but there were positive signs and the yard's horses can improve greatly for a run. Bred for middle-distances and best watched today, but one to put in a tracker for a race over further in due course.

Form: 8

Soldier's Son¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Georgia Cox⁽³⁾| T: H Candy

50/1

By Epaulette out of a 6f-7f winner. Cost just £5,500 as a yearling and showed little on debut. Up against it here in what looks a decent novice event.

Form: 0

Tipperary Jack³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Kieren Fox| T: J R Best

6/1

£190,000 dirt bred half-brother to a couple of US sprint winners, including recent Grade 3 scorer Mitole. Easy to back on Doncaster debut but was not beaten far and will come on a lot for the run. Yard in form and cannot be overlooked.

Form: 5

Daryana²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton

25/1

Was not beaten far on Newmarket debut in what looked a sub-standard event for the track. Stable's horses are running better of late but she has a lot to find.

Form: 9

Heldtoransom²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽⁵⁾| T: J Tuite

100/1

Makes little appeal on pedigree and even less on the evidence of her two runs to date. Has a mountain to climb in this company.

Form: 04

Lapidary¹⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Ellie Mackenzie⁽⁷⁾| T: H Main

50/1

Kodiac filly; cost 320,000gns as a yearling but sold unraced at a knockdown 5,000gns in October 2018; started 25/1 on debut at Lingfield (7f) in December when finishing in excess of 5L seventh of 13 to Diamond Oasis; may improve.

Form: 7-

(7)

Laurier

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: J P Spencer| T: K A Ryan

20/1

$410,000 Scat Daddy yearling with plenty of dirt/AW winners in the pedigree. Stable 1-22 with three-year-olds here in last five years, but still worth noting in the market given that pedigree and price tag.

Tuk Power

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: S De Sousa| T: A M Balding

9/2

Fetched 1,300,000 gns as a yearling being by Dubawi out of a Listed winner. Represents connections having an excellent year and rates a big danger in receipt of her allowance.

Destination (8/11), Tuk Power (9/2), Tipperary Jack (6/1), Motfael (10/1), Laurier (20/1), Noble Fox (25/1), Daryana (25/1), Debonair Don Juan (40/1), Lapidary (50/1), Soldier's Son (50/1), Pecorino (50/1), Bated Beauty (50/1), Heldtoransom (100/1), Lambristo (100/1)

The Kingpower/Balding/De Sousa triumvirate are proving an excellent team and in particular with their three-year-olds. As a result, Tuk Power, who fetched a princely sum at the sales could take advantage of the 11lb she receives from DESTINATION, but whatever she does today is likely to be improved upon next time. The selection is chosen to make his experience tell and it is hard to knock his Wetherby win given the speed figure and with the third, who has won since, being rated 88. Laurier is another expensive purchase to note given a good dirt pedigree and the same applies to Tipperary Jack.
