11/1
33/1, stepped up on debut form when third of 11 in novice here (8f, heavy) 11 days ago, not knocked about. Will stay this longer trip but needs a big step forward here.

9/4
Fair maiden who arrives on back of good third of 8 in nursery at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 21 days ago. Unproven on a soft surface but not ruled out.

3/1
130,000 gns yearling. Frankel half-brother to several winners, notably very smart 1¾m Ispolini. Dam 1½m winner. Derby entrant and lots to like on paper so much respected newcomer. Worth market check.

3/1
7/1, improved on debut effort when fourth of 13 in 7f novice at Ayr (7.2f, good to soft) 17 days ago, running on late. Looks a stayer so not dismissed now he tackles this longer distance.

5/1
28/1, late headway when seventh of 9 in 1m novice at Ayr (soft) on debut 18 days ago. Will be well suited by this stiffer test so no forlorn hope.

18/1
Very green when last of 8 in maiden (25/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on debut 21 days ago. Well-bred son of Australia so by no means written off with that experience behind him.

Twice-raced maiden, 100/1 when only beating one in 1m Haydock novice (soft) on latter occasion. Hard to warm to.

Forecasts

Farhan (9/4), Harlem Soul (3/1), Kentucky Kitten (3/1), Ravenscraig Castle (5/1), Arthur Norse (11/1), Myrtle Maclagan (18/1), Pool Bar Lady (100/1)

Verdict

HARLEM SOUL has a lot to recommend him, being a well-related son Frankel who holds a Derby entry, so Mark Johnston's colt is taken to go in at the first time of asking. Both Kentucky Kitten and Ravenscraig Castle have given the impression this stamina test will suit so they are taken to chase him home.

  1. HARLEM SOUL
  2. KENTUCKY KITTEN (IRE)
  3. RAVENSCRAIG CASTLE
