Jazzi'o^t⁴¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 67| BF

9/4

Promising sort. Third of 8 in maiden at Sandown (7f, good to firm) 41 days ago, nearest finish. Makes handicap debut. Merits consideration with prospect of more to come.

Form: 33

(9)

Obtuse¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: J F Egan| T: P D Evans| OR: 66

7/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, sixth of 8 in nursery at Leicester (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Eased 2 lb on the back of that but others appeal more for win purposes.

Form: 8446

(8)

Bazaari¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: W Buick| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 66

6/1

Twice-raced maiden. 7/1, last of 5 in minor event at Newmarket (1m) 11 days ago. Had shaped with promise when second on debut here (7f, AW) previously and no surprise to see him bounce back.

Form: 25

Vamoos⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: Tom Marquand| T: M R Channon| OR: 66

22/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in minor event (9/2) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 45 days ago. Must bounce back making handicap debut.

Uncle Dick²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 65

10/3

Twice-raced maiden. 6/1, fourth of 15 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 23 days ago, keeping on well. Step up to 7f rates a likely plus now handicapping and he's respected.

Form: 24

Bahia Star³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: S W Kelly| T: Rae Guest| OR: 65

6/1

Twice-raced maiden. 7/1, fourth of 12 in minor event at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Step up in trip may well suit now handicapping.

Form: 54

Gordonstoun^p¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: P & O Cole| OR: 63

18/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 8 in nursery at Leicester (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago, keeping on when no room inside final 1f. Still, others more persuasive.

Form: 3407

(4)

Cuban Cigar^b¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 63

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Very good third of 9 in nursery at Thirsk (7f, good, 9/2) 17 days ago, unable to sustain effort. No reason why he won't be in the mix with a repeat here.

Form: 7593

(5)

Spirit Of Rowdown^p¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-1| J: Isobel Francis⁽⁷⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 45

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 18/1, hinted at ability when fourth of 13 in nursery at Kempton (7f) 14 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Needs to build on that now.

Form: 6084

Forecasts

Jazzi'o (9/4), Uncle Dick (10/3), Bahia Star (6/1), Bazaari (6/1), Obtuse (7/1), Locket (8/1), Cuban Cigar (14/1), Gordonstoun (18/1), Vamoos (22/1), Spirit Of Rowdown (40/1)

JAZZI'O shaped well at Windsor and kept on nicely for third over this trip at Sandown 6 weeks ago. She remains the type to do even better for her good yard and earns the vote on handicap debut. Uncle Dick promises to be suited by the step up in trip and along with Cuban Cigar, heads up the dangers.
