6/1
Broke his maiden at the second attempt at Epsom (7f) on his latest appearance. He ran green last time and did not appear to enjoy the track which suggests there could be more to come. One for the shortlist.

80/1
Had just one horse behind him on his opening run at Chester (6f) where he 16½L behind after going off at 50/1. Will need to take a huge step in the right direction here to be competitive this time around.

11/2
Improved from his debut at Newbury (6f) to finish third of 10 over this distance at Newbury on his second start. Open to further progression here at the same trip as his latest outing. One to consider.

33/1
Has not been too far away on both of his two starts so far. He was third of five on debut at Brighton (6f) and then came home fifth of eight over that same C&D on his latest appearance. Will need to improve. Others preferred.

HMS President

12/1
Excelebration colt who was foaled on April 6 and cost £34,000 as a yearling. He is a brother to Celebrity Dancer who was successful over 5f and 6f as a two-year-old. His dam was victorious over 6½f. One to watch on his debut.

9/4
Was fifth of 12 on his debut at Kempton (7f) on the AW, finishing 4L off the winner. He was slow away on that opening start so an improved performance can be expected here on his second appearance.

Intrepid Italian
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-0| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon
16/1
Havana Gold colt who was foaled on April 25 and cost 35,000 gns as a foal. Half-brother to Swirral Edge who won over 6f. Has to be respected from this yard on his debut. Keep an eye out for any strong market support.

Stoweman12
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-0| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox| BF
13/8
Has been second on both of his two starts so far, including on his latest run at Salisbury (6f) in an 11 runner field where he went off as the 6/4 favourite. Open to improvement. Leading contender.

Forecasts

Stoweman (13/8), Impatient (9/4), Fantasy Believer (11/2), Bodyline (6/1), HMS President (12/1), Intrepid Italian (16/1), Global Agreement (33/1), Cappella Fella (80/1)

Verdict

This looks a good opportunity for STOWEMAN to get off the mark at the third attempt. He has done little wrong in his two runs so far where he has had to settle for second place on both occasions. He is likely to be better on this latest start which should be enough to see him lose his maiden. Impatient made up good ground after a slow start on his debut to finish not too far away. An improved performance can be expected here which may see the colt in the frame, while Fantasy Believer looked more comfortable at this trip last time so he can fill the placings.
  1. Stoweman
  2. Impatient
  3. Fantasy Believer
