10/3
Promising effort in finishing 8L fifth in a heavy ground 1m novice race at Newbury on debut last October. Improvement likely and market support would be notable on seasonal reappearance.

3/1
Shown good form in his two most recent AW efforts including when 2L second over this C&D last week. Sets the standard on form and looks likely to prove hard to beat in this contest.

16/1
Fair effort when 12½L seventh in a novice contest over 6f here when debuting last September. Absent since and looks likely to appreciate this step up in distance on his return from a break.

9/1
Shaped as if he'd improve for the experience when finishing 5½L fourth in a 1m maiden at Lingfield on debut last month. Interesting runner for a stable with an 18% strike-rate (3/17) in recent weeks.

Amathus

50/1
Unraced Anjaal colt bought privately at the breeze-up sales last April. Dam an unraced half-sister to a couple of winners and he is probably best watched on first racecourse appearance.

20/1
Unraced Brazen Beau colt purchased for €8,000 as a yearling in August 2018. Half-brother to the yards useful stayer Renfrew Street and he is worth a check in the market on debut.

Unraced Sir Percy colt cost connections 7,000 gns at the sales as a yearling. Dam placed over this C&D and market support would be notable for a useful stable on racecourse debut.

Horse silk
66/1
Held in both starts so far most recently when beaten 7½L in first time blinkers (retained) over 7f at Lingfield last month. Others hold more obvious claims in this race.

Forecasts

Driving Force (11/10), Note Bleu (3/1), Amir Kabir (10/3), Tepui (9/1), Rockin' N Raven (16/1), Artillery (20/1), Amathus (50/1), Salkeev (66/1)

Verdict

NOTE BLEU looks the pick of those with experience and he can get off the mark at the fifth time of asking in this novice event. Amir Kabir is likely to have improved for his sole start at two and he is taken to chase the selection home ahead of the newcomer Artillery who represents a top yard on debut.
  1. Note Bleu
  2. Amir Kabir
  3. Artillery
