1/2

Promising type who improved from debut 9 months on when second of 8 in minor event at Newmarket (8f, good, 10/3), every chance final 1f. Off 92 days. Chance is there for all to see.

Fair gelding. Seventh of 13 in maiden (14/1) at Saint-Cloud (8f, good to soft). Off 131 days. First run for yard after leaving A. Fabre. May well do better.

Shaped encouragingly when fifth of 12 in minor event at Redcar (8f, heavy, 6/1) on debut 22 days ago, never nearer. Open to progress.

Sixth of 7 in maiden at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm, 33/1) on debut 89 days ago, considerately handled. Likely to do better but this is a tough ask.

Forecasts

Imrahor (1/2), Yukon (9/2), Marreyr (9/2), En Couleur (8/1), Redshank (16/1), Finally Mine (25/1), Hoylake (40/1), Pynkamix (150/1)

A reproduction of IMRAHOR's runner-up effort at Newmarket in June should be enough for Hugo Palmer's colt to get off the mark at the third time of asking. Yukon looks the pick of David O'Meara's pair and he can chase the selection home after a promising debut effort in fifth last month, while any support for newcomer Marreyr would put a different slant on things.
