Grimsthorpe Castle¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Liam Keniry| T: E Walker

Lethal Force colt cost £2,000 as a yearling; a fourth foal and a half to brother a Scandinavian winner. Stable not noted at all for juvenile winners and best watched on debut.

Rocket Dancer¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S Kirk

9/4

Toronado colt showed some promise on debut but certainly improved when a staying on second in a reasonable time at Leicester last month. Looked only likely to progress again with experience and a leading contender.

Form: 52

(8)

Selecto²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Watson| T: H & R Charlton

6/1

Paco Boy colt left debut effort behind when fourth at Newbury over this distance. Stable in good form and looked the type to progress with each run. Leading player on AW debut.

Strait Of Hormuz⁸⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding

8/1

Gelded son of Derby winner Sir Percy who showed little to shout about when always struggling and finished tailed off on debut. Has since left Hugo Palmer and needs to greatly improve on stable and AW debut.

Form: 9

Thank The Irish⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Nicola Currie| T: J A Osborne

25/1

Camacho colt bought for €10,000 as a yearling. Sent off 25/1 and never involved on last month's debut at Lingfield (AW) over a mile. Others preferred until signs of improvement.

(9)

Goddess Of Rome

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: S Crisford

12/1

Daughter of Holy Roman Emperor and a fourth foal of a dam who was placed in Germany. Stable in very good form and boast a strong strike-rate with their juveniles this season. Likely type on debut.

Form:

(5)

Kates Star

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: A McCarthy| T: Mrs C A Dunnett

100/1

Daughter of Casamento and a first foal who doesn't really catch the eye on breeding on debut. Stable's first juvenile runner of the season and little appeal on paper.

Form:

(1)

Wailea Nights³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Harry Bentley| T: M Botti

5/1

Lawman filly was sent off 25/1 on debut last month when a keeping on but well held 6L third. Back half a furlong and place possibilities again with some improvement.

Forecasts

Rocket Dancer (9/4), Cobber Kain (11/4), Wailea Nights (5/1), Selecto (6/1), Strait Of Hormuz (8/1), Goddess Of Rome (12/1), Locked N' Loaded (20/1), Thank The Irish (25/1), Grimsthorpe Castle (50/1), Lenny The Lion (100/1), Kates Star (100/1)

ROCKET DANCER really improved from his debut when runner-up on his second start and with that setting the form standard, he's more than capable of going one better. Selecto is closely matched on form and likewise progressed significantly from his debut. Of the debutantes Goddess Of Rome really catches the eye while Cobber Kain should also be noted in the betting.
