Fall Of Rome⁴¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: James Doyle| T: C Appleby| BF

11/8

Beaten favourite both starts but he's run to a fairly useful level and his debut second to Go Bears Go (won Group 2 in Ireland at the weekend) looks very good now. Has been gelded and big shout.

Form: 23

He's A Gentleman^p1²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: R Kingscote| T: Tom Dascombe

9/2

Showed improved form from his debut despite the odd hint of lingering greenness when second at Ripon (5f) and clearly has a race in him. Cheekpieces tried.

Form: 42

Ibn Aldar¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: P J McDonald| T: C Hills

18/1

From a good family and ran to a fair level on debut at Lingfield (6f, AW) a fortnight ago. Should be sharper for the run and can improve.

Prodigious Blue¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: N Tinkler

33/1

Floundered in the mud on debut but proved a different proposition on firmer ground when third at Redcar (6f) 12 days ago. Could do even better.

Form: 73

Ryan's Party³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| BF

9/1

Promise on debut at Hamilton behind a useful prospect but didn't see things out at Beverley a fortnight on. This extra furlong should suit and he could yet do better.

Form: 25

Fall Of Rome (11/8), Jazz Club (7/2), He's A Gentleman (9/2), Ryan's Party (9/1), Green Team (14/1), Ibn Aldar (18/1), Oneforthegutter (25/1), Spacer (25/1), Prodigious Blue (33/1), Melos (66/1)

FALL OF ROME has been gelded since disappointing at Goodwood and definitely has a race in him, his second on debut to Saturday's Railway winner Go Bears Go looking even better now. This extra furlong will suit and he could take care of some appealing newcomers, headed by Jazz Club and Green Team.
