10/3
Foaled April 8. Brother to 3 winners, including very smart 1½m-1¾m winner Southern France and useful/temperamental 2-y-o 1m winner Martin Chuzzlewit. Of obvious interest on debut for top connections.

Foaled January 29. €80,000 yearling. Dam, French 7f winner, half-sister to smart 1¼m/10.5f winner Armande. Yard's newcomers usually come on for a run.

Upset in the stalls ahead of low-key debut on the other course here in July. Couldn't be in better hands and likely to leave that run well behind in time.

15/8
Foaled March 10. €500,000 yearling. Dam, 8.3f-1¼m winner who stayed 1½m, half-sister to smart winner up to 1½m Banimpire. Every inch a likely-looking type and merits close attention in the betting.

Blew the start when trailing in last of the 11 runners in 7f maiden on recent debut here. Likely to come into his own over middle distances next year.

Last month's Salisbury debut wasn't devoid of promise and he's entitled to come on for that. Still, it's likely that one or two of the newcomers will prove too good.

Forecasts

Mystical Dawn (15/8), Bolshoi Ballet (10/3), Zinc White (4/1), Movin Time (4/1), Meritorious (7/1), Wahraan (7/1), Frantoio (16/1), Havengore (200/1)

Verdict

This looks destined for one of the newcomers, with Aidan O'Brien's BOLSHOI BALLET the most appealing of them. The Galileo colt holds Group 1 entries and confidence behind him in the betting would be an ominous sign. Fellow debutants Mystical Dawn and Movin Time are feared most in that order, while Zinc White is the clear pick of the quartet with experience.

  1. BOLSHOI BALLET (IRE)
  2. MYSTICAL DAWN (IRE)
  3. MOVIN TIME
