Horse silk
200/1
Mastercraftsman colt. Well-Beaten in two starts to date, including 150/1 sixth in minor event over C&D six days ago. Makes very little appeal.
Twice-raced maiden who raced prominently and wasn't knocked about when his chance was gone at Ayr (1m) last time. One who may need time to learn.

200/1
Maiden after two starts who ran to his outsider status when fourteenth at Carlisle (5f) in June. Drastic step up in trip and very hard to make any case for.

Horse silk
10/1
Golden Horn colt. Ran well for a long way before fading out of contention at Leicester (7f, good to firm) last month. Yard's horses usually improve with each effort so not without hope.
5

Horse silk
7/1
24,500 gns yearling by Lope De Vega. Dam won over 1m and is a half-sister to 1m winner Prince d'Alienor. Of interest on debut and market should guide.
By 2015 2000 Guineas winner Gleneagles. Dam was a winner up to 1m2f and is a close relation to 1m4f winner Top Turn. Obvious interest for powerful owners on debut.

Horse silk
28/1
52,000 gns yearling. Dam was a 1m minor stakes winner in the US and is by Group 1 winner Karakontie. Respected on debut and yard can ready one.

Horse silk
66/1
Roderic O'Connor colt. Has some useful winners in his pedigree, including 1m1f winner Nocturnal Secret, but it isn't much to shout about and probably best watched on debut.
9
(4)
Horse silk
20/1
Maiden after two start but showed some sort of progression when fourth of six over C&D 12 days ago. More progression likely so has place claims.

2/7
Kingman colt. Slow start proved costly on debut but kept on well to finish fourth in 7f Newmarket maiden in July. Wasn't knocked about and yard don't send no-hopers here. The one to beat.

Forecasts

Tsar (2/7), Emaraty Hero (7/1), Finely Tuned (15/2), Court Of Appeal (10/1), Take That (20/1), Black Star Dancing (22/1), Glenties (28/1), Roddy Ransom (66/1), Anno Lucis (200/1), Castashadow (200/1)

Verdict

TSAR took many people's eyes at Newmarket when staying on well despite showing inexperience. He has been given some time to mature and over a trip which should see him excel, he looks to be the class act in the field. His main danger could come from the debutante Finely Tuned, who has a likeable pedigree and his sire's progeny have been known to run well first time out. While the likes of another debutante in Glenties and Court Of Appeal should vie for the places but may be long-term prospects.
  1. Tsar
  2. Finely Tuned
  3. Court Of Appeal
