7/2
Footstepsinthesand gelding out of a useful 7f winner. Slowly away and showed his inexperience before getting up late in a 6f Newmarket novice first time, beating Adaay Dream. Should improve enough to be competitive under a penalty.

Half-brother to a couple of 2-y-o winners, but he's shown very little in two starts to date, and not expected to take a hand here.

Horse silk
200/1
Out of a 7f-1¼m winner for the yard, but unfancied and offered little immediate promise on debut at Doncaster. One for the longer term, in all likelihood.

Half-brother to a pair of juvenile winners at up to 7f. Better than the bare result (bumped over 1f out) when fifth of 9 in a 6f Redcar maiden a month ago. Should do better.

Full- brother to 1m winner Dramatic Exit and half-brother to 6f/7f winner Eleftheronikos, out of a well-related 1m winner. Yard not had a juvenile winner in past five years from limited runners.

14/1
Footstepsinthesand colt out of a 2m winner. Pedigree suggests further would suit, and yard would appear to have stronger claims with Seasett.

11/10
From family of Poule d'Essai des Poulains winner Tin Horse. Green, but shaped with promise when 1¾L third of 9 to Devious Company at Haydock in what looked a warm contest of its type. Will improve, and has leading form claims here.
Territories half-brother to useful 1m winner Si Senor and 1m-1m3½f winner Cape Discovery, out of a 2-y-o 7f winner. Yard has just had two juvenile winners this year, although one did come on debut over this trip.

Horse silk
13/2
Full-brother to Eclipse Stakes winner Hawkbill and half-brother to US 2-y-o Grade 1 winner Free Drop Billy. Yard had a debutant winner over this trip last weekend, and this colt makes definite appeal first time out.

Horse silk
12/1
Both dam and second dam unraced, but latter is a full-sister to Grand Prix de Paris winner Imperial Monarch and closely related to Derby runner-up The Great Gatsby. Needs a market check on debut.
Helmet half-brother to useful 2-y-o 6f winner Alwasmiya and 7f winner Ginger Max, out of a winning half-sister to smart 5f winner Dutch Masterpiece. Should win races if pedigree a guide, but yard just 1-36 with 2-y-o debutants in last five years.

Horse silk
9/1
Ajaya half-sister to useful 5f-1m winner Kazan and 2-y-o 7f winner Good Job Power. In good hands, and yard has a 15% strike-rated with first-time juveniles in the past 12 months.

(10)
Horse silk
100/1
First foal of a 1m-1¼m winner, herself half-sister to smart winner up to 2m Grey Britain. One of a trio from the stable in this race, and likely to benefit from the experience.

Forecasts

Jadoomi (11/10), Star Of Orion (7/2), Ridgeway Avenue (13/2), Dexter Belle (9/1), Seasett (12/1), Gorytus (14/1), Flare Star (18/1), Possible Ambition (22/1), Willyorwon't He (28/1), Cobweb Corner (80/1), Mitcham Fair (100/1), Bite Ya Legs (200/1), Belvedere Blast (250/1)

Verdict

JADOOMI was green when third in a pretty warm contest of its type on his debut, while the same could be said of Star of Orion when winning at Newmarket, but the weight concession tips the balance in the direction of the former. Ridgeway Avenue hails from a yard going places, and looks the pick of the unraced battalion.
  1. Jadoomi
  2. Star Of Orion
  3. Ridgeway Avenue
