£45,000 Gelded son of Kodiac hasn't shown very much in two outings so far on turf and AW. May do better in time when getting his handicap mark.

Harbour Watch gelding who has been tried at between 5f and a mile in his three outings so far and shown little to write home about. Hard to see him getting involved at this level.

50,000 euro Toronado colt who made a pleasing racecourse bow when second over 7f at Chelmsford last month, leading until tiring inside the final furlong. Drop back makes sense and should have every chance to go one better.

76,000 guineas Speightstown gelding out of German Listed race winner. Likely to be better over further and expected to improve for this debut experience.

Invincible Spririt colt whose Group 3-winning dam was second in Irish 1000 Guineas. No market support on debut over C&D last month but showed speed until tiring 1f out. Should know more and can do better this time.
75,000 euro son of Siyouni out of decent 7f performer. Didn't do much run at Lingfield on debut when good second over this trip, staying on well in closing stages. Sure to be on the premises yet again.

Garswood gelding cost £35,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to Group 3 juvenile winner Regal Realm. Interesting pedigree and yard capable of readying a newcomer so a glance at the market will be worthwhile.

7/2
Progressive in three starts, best effort coming last time over 7f here when second in novice auction stakes, tiring inside last 100 yards. Drop back in trip looks the right call and may not be far away once again.

Ruler Of The World filly who was very easy to back on debut at Chelmsford last month finishing last of 11. Much more needed and likely to find this a tough assignment.

7,500 guineas Brazen Beau filly, half-sister to two winners at up to a mile. Yard had juvenile winner here last week so worth a market check for any signs of optimism on racecourse bow.

66/1
Orb filly who has had two outings to date, both at Wolverhampton. Hinted at ability on each occasion but looks very much the type to do better once tackling handicap company.

Horse silk
5/1
Debutante Oasis Dream fillly representing top yard. Plenty of stamina on dam's side so will stay further but has to be respected for yard with 33% strike rated with juveniles at this track.

Forecasts

Lexington Dash (5/6), Where's Mick (7/2), Corvair (4/1), Tomorrow's Dream (5/1), Splendidly (16/1), Full Speight (20/1), Indian Road (25/1), Dream Game (50/1), Alioski (50/1), Tattletime (66/1), Bank Holiday (100/1), Castashadow (250/1)

Verdict

A drop back in trip looks just the job for CORVAIR who faded late on over 7f on debut at Chelmsford and can go one better this time. Lexington Dash looks a big threat and will make a proper race of it, while there are good grounds for anticipating an improved display from Indian Road and Where's Mick. The nicely bred newcomer Tomorrow's Dream, along with another debutant Splendidly look best of the rest.
