Looks to be a tricky sort and ran to 100/1 odds when distant ninth in 7f Lingfield novice in March. Not seen since but this looks an equally as tough task.
Bred to be speedy and looked a handful on debut when 25L last of nine at Kempton (7f) in August 2018. Off since and makes very little appeal on comeback effort.
Bred to be quite smart and looked to have plenty of promise when second in Lingfield maiden (7f) in early June. Has plenty of scope to progress once more and is on the shortlist.
Muhaarar colt. Showed signs of inexperience and start may have cost winning chance but stayed on well to take second on debut at Haydock (7f) last month. Should come on for that more and leading claims if replicating that.
Cheap purchase and this gelding didn't run up to scratch when seventh of 11 in Windsor maiden (6f) last month. Plenty required in deeper company.
Striking pedigree. Night Of Thunder colt. Half-brother to champion Group 1 sprinter Blue Point, 6f Group 2 winner Formosina and 1m scorer Esytopolishdiamond. Definitely worth a market check on debut.
Third foal. Closely related to 1m winner Tadleel. Half-brother to 6f winner Second Collection and dam was a maiden sprinter. Not the most striking pedigree so best watched.
Already a gelding and looked to be a handful on debut. Start cost all chances when 13L eighth at Wolverhampton (7f) in June. Needs more based on that.
100,00 gns son of Kingman out of unraced but well-related dam. Half-brother to a winning sprinter (6f). Yard in solid form and can ready one. Noted.
Sent off a 66/1 for debut effort and ran accordingly with 9L defeat in 6f Leicester novice in mid June. Much more needed in this company.
Related to some useful winners but didn't offer much on debut when 13L eighth at Newmarket (7f, heavy) in November. Not seen since and should fare better on nicer ground.
Returned to vendor for 3,000 gns as a yearling. Half-sister to Spanish 7f winner Nyala. Dam was placed between 5f and 7f as a juvenile. Not a striking pedigree and tough race to make debut in.

Two Hamdan Al Maktoum-owned runners are likely to spearhead the betting and preference is for BAASHIR to progress once more. While the form of his debut is modest at best, he fluffed his lines completely that day but still showed his raw ability to fly home and take second. If he is on his best behaviour, he should be hard to beat. Anjah is similarly progressive and will be suited better to this track than the one he faced at Lingfield last time, while debutantes Desert Destination and Sycamore hail from smart families who got better with racing, and should be noted.
