50/1
33-1 for only start last year at Newcastle (1m, AW) in a novice contest and was too green to play any sort of meaningful part. Up in trip on return to action and lots of improvement needed.

13/2
Twice held in bumpers last year but shaped with much more purpose recently at Kempton (1m3f, AW; 14-1) when beaten 1½L into third. Should be sharper for that run and high on the shortlist as a result.

450,000 gns yearling, Galileo colt. Half-brother to three winners, notably Derby winner Golden Horn. Beautifully bred newcomer and finds a nice starting place seemingly.

Well held in both starts so far; latest being a return from 257 days off at Haydock (1m2f, good; 40-1) this month. Plenty improvement as stamina stretched out again here.

4/1
Free Eagle colt, cost 32,000 gns as a yearling and winners in family; sported cheekpieces (retained) on debut this month at Newcastle (1m2f, AW; 66-1) and never able to get involved. Should know more now and can do better.

Was resold for €58,000 as a yearling; 33-1 on racecourse bow this month at Haydock (1m2f, good) and struggled late on in finishing last of 11. May need more time.

Forecasts

Arrow Of Gold (5/4), Eagle's Foot (4/1), Nostalgica (9/2), Make Haste Slowly (13/2), Bringitonboris (14/1), Teescomponentsfly (25/1), Momentsaftamidnite (33/1), Dawn Landing (33/1), Kuredu (50/1), Stellarista (150/1)

Verdict

Those with experience aren't setting the bar high, with recent Kempton third Make Haste Slowly holding sway. This might well rest between well-bred newcomers ARROW OF GOLD and Nostalgica. It wouldn't be any sort of shock if the Mark Johnston filly got the job done but Kevin Ryan's son of Galileo is a half-brother to Derby/Arc hero Golden Horn and gets the vote on a track where the trainer has 23 per-cent strike rate over the previous 12 months.
  1. Arrow Of Gold
  2. Nostalgica
  3. Make Haste Slowly
