King Zain²¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 95| C

9/1

Pair of novice wins at 2 (the first here) but came up short at pattern level in between. Will require a very useful effort to concede weight all round.

Form: 1681-

El Drama³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Varian| OR: 98| BF

4/1

Won on 7f Doncaster debut last autumn. Took a step forward when 1½ lengths third in listed Spring Cup on Lingfield (7f, AW) return and more to come with 1m looking sure to suit.

Form: 1-3

Imperial Sands¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| CD

7/2

Won 9-runner C&D maiden on debut 19 days ago, making all in dominant fashion. In a much stronger race now but he does look certain to improve.

Form: 1

Mostahdaf²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden

10/11

Sent off at 1/2 and looked a good prospect when scoring easily on 7f Newcastle debut 3 weeks ago. Major player.

Form: 1

(4)

Sergeant Tibbs³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Ryan Tate| T: R Brisland

22/1

Fourth in novice on Lingfield debut and stepped up a good bit on that form when second in C&D conditions event last month. Likely he has more to offer.

Form: 42

Forecasts

Mostahdaf (10/11), Imperial Sands (7/2), El Drama (4/1), King Zain (9/1), Sergeant Tibbs (22/1)

An interesting contest, featuring some promising colts. The step up to 1m should suit Spring Cup-third EL DRAMA who is narrowly preferred to impressive Newcastle debut scorer Mostahdaf.
