My Best Friend³⁰⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 70

4/1

Gutaifan gelding who built on his debut effort last summer when making all in a Hamilton maiden (6f) in June. Absent since but likely he has more to offer this campaign.

Form: 51-

Canaria Prince

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby

25/1

Alhebayeb gelding. Dam 5f-6f winner. Betting should prove a useful guide ahead of racecourse debut.

Cleveleys¹⁹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: T Eaves| T: M Dods| OR: 73

9/2

Promising type. 14/1, third of 14 in minor event at this course (6f, heavy) in October, doing best of the rest on the far side. Likely to be suited by 7f now and he's of interest.

Form: 43-

Danny Bleu²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: C Ellam| OR: 66

33/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 9 in seller at Leicester (6f, good, 9/1) 20 days ago. Has since switched yards and suspicion he'll prove vulnerable to improvers here.

Form: 692

Hawk In The Wind¹⁹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: S Whitaker

80/1

Twice-raced maiden. 80/1, last of 11 in minor event at Newcastle (7.1f) in October, struggling 2f out. Likely type for low-grade handicaps in due course.

Form: 00-

(7)

Ireland's Eye²⁰²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Hanagan| T: D Carroll

13/2

Once-raced maiden. 33/1, fifth of 9 in minor event at York (5f, soft) on debut, slowly away. Off 6 months. Significantly up in trip. Open to improvement.

Form: 5-

Deny Knowledge²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: K Stott| T: J & S Quinn

10/1

Once-raced maiden. 40/1, seventh of 11 in minor event at this course (8f, good to firm) on debut 24 days ago. Likely best watched on the back of that effort.

Form: 7

(6)

Lilikoi²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Connor Beasley| T: T D Barron

4/1

Promising sort. Third of 11 in minor event at this course (8f, good to firm, 100/1) on debut 24 days ago. Feasible to think she can do better and expected to be in the mix.

Form: 3

(2)

Mcgivern²⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: B A Curtis| T: A Keatley

11/4

Tamayuz filly. 125/1, modest form when fifth of 12 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, firm) on debut back in August. Interesting Ben Curtis takes the ride and worth noting if market vibes are positive.

Form: 5-

Forecasts

Mcgivern (11/4), Lilikoi (4/1), My Best Friend (4/1), Cleveleys (9/2), Ireland's Eye (13/2), Deny Knowledge (10/1), Canaria Prince (25/1), Danny Bleu (33/1), Hawk In The Wind (80/1)

CLEVELEYS displayed definite signs of promise twice over 6f here last term and with the step up to 7f promising to suit, he's fancied to come out on top on his return. Lilikoi shaped up well on debut recently and is feared, along with My Best Friend and McGivern.
