9/2
280,000 gns yearling from the family of Islington. Easy to back late on and showed very little on debut at Redcar (6f, heavy) 6 months ago. Subsequently gelded and needs to improve plenty.

400,000 gns breeze-up purchase last year. 7/2, promising start behind good prospect in 7f novice here on debut last month, leading before fading final 1f. Better to come.

Much improved from debut when third of 6 in 6f Chelmsford novice fitted with cheekpieces 5 months ago. Gelded and suspect he'll come into his own when handicapping shortly.

Little impact in 7f course maiden/6f minor event in the autumn, still in need of experience on latest (hung left early in straight). Gelded and had wind op.

30,000 gns yearling, 33,000 gns 2-y-o. Half-brother to 1½m winner Buckland Boy. Gelded and probably only of interest if subject of market support.

From the family of stable's 1000 Guineas winner Speciosa and showed more second time up at Leicester in October when 9 lengths second of 6 to promising Aldaary over this trip. Could do better.

€75,000 yearling, Shalaa filly, half-sister to a winner in France. 14/1, given a considerate introduction on debut at Redcar (6f, heavy) last summer and she could improve a fair bit.

Forecasts

Credence Star (5/6), Bannow (9/2), Neveyah (10/1), Special Mayson (11/1), Johnny Estella (11/1), Elegant Ellen (12/1), Rogue Bear (18/1), Pagan (25/1), Little Muddy (250/1)

Verdict

CREDENCE STAR showed plenty first time up here last month and there could be a good bit more to come, the drop to 6f likely to suit this expensive 2020 breeze-up purchase. Elegant Ellen could be the danger on her return for Tim Easterby, while Bannow may leave his disappointing Redcar debut behind 6 months on.
