28,000gns foal; half-brother to winners Ponty Acclaim (5f 2yo inc Group 3), Adham (5f-7f inc GB 2yo/Qatar) and Killermont Street (7f 2yo/1m AW). Yard tend to bring them along steadily and have only had one two-year-old winner this year.
Dam 6f winner from just two starts; half-brother to maiden Dutch Stranger. Yard have an 11% strike-rate with juveniles this year. Hasn't got the flashiest of pedigrees and others are preferred.
Yard 1-53 with juveniles in the last five seasons; took a big step forward on poor debut the finish fourth at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) recently but will need to improve again to shake up the market principals.
Elzaam gelding, he shaped well on debut at Nottingham (6f, soft) 38 days ago. Despite missing the break and racing greenly, he kept on well to take fifth, beaten 8¼L. Is open to further improvement if building on that.
70,000 gns yearling; dam multiple winner (5f/6f) including at Listed level and on the AW. Yard having a quiet spell; they can ready a newcomer but tend to improve for their debut. Keep an eye on the market.
From a family of some speedy individuals, he overcame trouble to take third on debut at Salisbury before building on that at Newbury (6f, good) 57 days ago. Sets the form standard and doesn't need to improve to figure here.
Half-brother to five winners including Solar Magic and Starscope. Sent off favourite on debut at Windsor (5f, heavy) four weeks ago but ran disappointingly to finish seventh, beaten 10½L. These conditions may suit better.
35,000gns yearling; closely related to winners After and Gussy Goose and half-brother to winners Temps Au Temps and Immortalised. Dam won 7f-1m2f. Mixed pedigree in terms of this trip on debut and market position will guide.
£36,000 yearling; brother to 5.7f winner Show Me The Bubbly, half-brother to 7f 2yo winner Sea Shack; dam 6f-7f winner (inc at 2; 104). Shrewd yard who do have the occasional winning newcomers and has been drawn well for debut.
Yard 0/6 with two-year-olds in the last five seasons. Tailed-off last of 12 on debut here 10 days ago, beaten 16½L at 200/1. Similar outcome likely on the basis of that performance.
90,000gns yearling by Gleneagles; closely related to 7f 2yo winner Aussie View; dam 5f-1m winner (including Group 3). From a leading yard who continue in good form and must be on the shortlist.

Forecasts
River Nymph (4/7), Queen's Course (5/1), Rodin (8/1), Agent Shiftwell (8/1), Prince Caspian (14/1), Viaduct (14/1), The Weed Machine (16/1), Newton Jack (25/1), Glorious Caesar (25/1), Park Lane Dancer (28/1), Kilconquhar (50/1), Giovanni Tiepolo (50/1), Dabbersgirl (200/1)
Another interesting juvenile contest, where RIVER NYMPH should prove hard to beat after showing a decent level of form in two outings thus far. Of others with experience, Agent Shiftwell should improve for a fair debut at Windsor whilst Queen's Curse represents a leading yard who have continue in good form and regularly have winning newcomers. Park Lane Dancer is also worth keeping an eye on.
