Yard had just a handful of juvenile runners without success since the restart but this well bred Dubawi colt is bred to be useful and with stamina on the dam's side should go close on debut. Trainer has 26% strike rate here with this age group.

50,000 euros New Bay colt. Dam unraced but closely related to Group 3-winning juvenile over this trip. Jockey 2-9 for this stable so far.
Holy Roman Emperor colt out of a winning juvenile and half-brother to two winning two-year-olds. Looks sharp enough on paper and stable does well enough with its youngsters.
Home bred colt by The Gurkha out of dam who won at between 6f-1m as a two-year-old. Top yard always capable of having one ready first time so market may porvide some usefu pointers.

Price dropped from 130,000gns foal to 80,000gns yearling but still a notable purchase. Kodiac half-brother to two minor winners. Top jockey on board for racecourse debut.

75,000gns Dansili colt out of dam who won over extended 1m1f on AW and whose dam is half-sister to very smart Group 1 winner Zoffany and talented Group 2 winner Rostropovich.
£25,000 colt by Requinto out of unraced half-sister to Listed 1m2f winner. Half-brother to three winners, two who scored at up to 7f as juveniles. Yard going great guns so definitely enters calculations.

Forecasts

Al Watan (3/1), Mr Trick (7/2), First Prophet (18/5), Paws For Thought (5/1), Majd Al Arab (5/1), No Recollection (12/1), Leto The First (28/1)

Verdict

No form to go on here but AL WATAN, a son of Dubawi, looks the part on paper and could well oblige at the first time of asking. Paws For Thought hails from a yard that is enjoying a fine spell and it would come as no surprise to see this son of Requinto put up a bold show on debut, a comment that also applies to Maid Al Arab, a son of The Gurkha. No Recollection has an interesting pedigree and along with Mr Trick is worth noting for any move in the betting markets.
  1. Al Watan
  2. Paws For Thought
  3. No Recollection
