7/1
Improved on second start last week when 4L runner-up at Lingfield despite stumbling at halfway. That was on soft ground and there should be more to come with the stable having a juvenile winner on Thursday.

Horse silk
11/1
Unfancied 25/1 shot on recent 6f Doncaster debut and never figured when 6L eighth of nine. Down a furlong here and should have learned from that experience.

Horse silk
12/1
Sixth foal. Half-brother to three winners including useful 7f handicapper Take The Helm. Dam won on debut as a two-year-old over 6f but trainer just 3-96 with juveniles in 2019.

11/4
Price rose from €5,000 to €38,000 at the Breeze ups in May. First foal of a dam who stayed 1m2f. Stable two-year-olds going well and needs close monitoring in market.

18/1
22/1 for recent debut at Ayr over 6f. Didn't show a great deal when 7L sixth of eight and will need to take a step forward to play a part today.
40/1 on Beverley debut a month ago and too green to get involved when beating just one home. Stable jockey prefers the newcomer Norton Lad.

6/4
€52,000 yearling. First foal and dam was a 5f winner on debut. Yard amongst the winners with their two-year-olds and wouldn't have to be anything special to play a major role on debut.

66/1
Well beaten when going off 50/1 on both starts last month and hard to fancy today with nurseries an option after this.
Slowly away both starts but much better over C&D last week when 2L sixth of nine despite been short of room for a while. That for just about sets the standard of those with experience though softer ground to deal with now

Horse silk
33/1
Both runs at Beverley. Showed some ability on debut but took a step backwards on second run there last week and will likely be seen in a better light when handicapping after this.

Forecasts

Wonderwork (6/4), Romantic Vision (11/4), Instantly (7/1), Not On Your Nellie (9/1), Maurice Dancer (11/1), Norton Lad (12/1), Shadow Leader (18/1), Sombra De Mollys (33/1), Tenbobmillionaire (50/1), Northern Grace (66/1)

Verdict

NOT ON YOUR NELLIE probably has the slight edge of those to have raced ahead of Lingfield runner-up Instantly though the bar isn't set high and any market interest in the newcomers, especially Romantic Vision and Wonderwork, would make them very interesting.
  1. Not On Your Nellie
  2. Romantic Vision
  3. Wonderwork
