Bumper and hurdles winner in the past but struggled in a 1m2f novice race at Windsor (good-to-soft) last time out and others make more appeal.
Failed to figure in two novice starts to date most recently over 1m2f at Lingfield early last month,. Probably best watched at present.
Improved on debut effort when winning a 1m novice event at Thirsk (good-to-firm) earlier this month. Penalised for that success and likely to put in another bold show on AW debut.
Unraced Bernardini colt purchased for 40,000 gns at the sales in July last year. Half-brother to classy middle-distance performer Mrs Lindsay and market support would be notable on debut.
Best effort in two starts to date came when finishing fifth in a 7f novice race at Thirsk (good-to-soft) just over a month ago. Interesting to see how he fares on return to the AW.
Well held in two turf novice races to date most recently when 14L eighth over 1m at Newmarket (good) a month ago. Likely to be of more interest once eligible for handicaps.
Unraced Australia filly bought for 26,000 gns at the sales as a yearling. Dam won in stakes company over sprint distances in the USA and interesting to see how she fares on debut.
Shaped as if she'd improve for the experience when finishing third in a 7f novice race at Lingfield on debut last December. Absent since and is one for the shortlist for a top yard on seasonal debut.
Signs of ability in two starts so far but more needed than when finishing 13L sixth in a 1m maiden at Windsor (good-to-firm) earlier this month if she is to take this event.
Finished eighth in a couple of novice races over 1m on the AW at the start of this year. Worth a check in the market for a stable with 28% strike-rate (7/25) in recent weeks.
Forecasts
Ghaziyah (10/11), Maximum Effect (6/4), Harbour City (8/1), Rudy Lewis (12/1), Knockacullion (20/1), Petite Malle (33/1), Yvette (40/1), Bambys Boy (40/1), Ecstasea (50/1), Logan's Choice (50/1)
MAXIMUM EFFECT showed plenty of ability when placing on her debut at Lingfield last December and she can get off the mark at the second time of asking in this novice event. Ghaziyah, the only previous Flat winner in the field looks capable of taking second spot ahead of Harbour City who hails from a good yard on debut.
