Qaader²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 99| D

4/1

Useful colt who showed a good attitude to come out on top in 4-runner minor event at Goodwood in April. Fared best of those ridden prominently in Britannia Stakes (Handicap) at Royal Ascot last time.

Form: 530-217

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: James Doyle| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 94| BF| D

9/1

Off the mark in a Doncaster maiden (1m) in September and resumed his progress when beaten only one that had slipped in the weights in 1m handicap at Sandown 4 weeks ago. Should remain competitive.

Form: 317-62

Royal Fleet⁸¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 93| D

5/6

Unbeaten in 2 starts, defying a penalty in ready fashion at Yarmouth (1m) in April. He's a smart prospect open to further improvement, and looks well in on handicap debut.

Form: 1-1

Titan Rock²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Oisin Murphy| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 90| D

11/1

Found the required improvement to gain a first success in handicap company at Redcar (1m) 22 days ago, but a 5 lb rise in a much stronger race asks for more.

Form: 158-441

Kaheall³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 87| D

11/2

Promising sort who confirmed debut promise when landing a 7f Wolverhampton maiden in November. Successful both handicap starts at Chelmsford since and is the type to go on improving now back on turf.

Form: 311-1

Darvel^p1⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: David Egan| T: K A Ryan| OR: 82

40/1

Ayr novice winner last summer. Creditable second in small-field handicaps at Beverley and Haydock this spring, but was well held in a more competitive race at York last time. Cheekpieces on.

Form: 170-220

Forecasts

Royal Fleet (5/6), Qaader (4/1), Kaheall (11/2), Latest Generation (9/1), Seasett (10/1), Titan Rock (11/1), Darvel (40/1)

ROYAL FLEET has created an excellent impression in winning both his starts to date and, with the latest of those working out well, an opening BHA mark of 93 could easily underestimate him, especially with further improvement on the cards. Kaheall is an interesting rival given he's a similarly unexposed type from a top yard, while Qaader shouldn't be taken lightly either.
