Flatley²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: T E Whelan| T: A Wintle

28/1

Well-bred gelding who was bought for just 4,500 gns last year. Promise on debut at Chepstow (1m) last month and should have a future, probably in handicaps.

Form: 5

Jomont^h⁶⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: T Eaves| T: M Dods

50/1

Fair form in bumpers and not knocked about on Flat debut at Thirsk (1m) in May. Looks like another who could do well in handicaps down the line.

Form: 5

Abbey Heights

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rossa Ryan| T: D & C Kubler

10/1

Dark Angel colt out of a maiden who was a half-sister to a couple of smart winners. Yard's newcomers usually better for a run or 2.

Chadlington Lad

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Harrison Shaw| T: B Haslam

80/1

€37,000 yearling, Estidhkaar gelding. Half-brother to useful/untrustworthy winner up to 7f Lexington Times. Dam, 2-y-o 5f winner, half-sister to smart 7f/1m winner Green Line.

King's Commander¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara

66/1

Easy to back and proved very green on debut over C&D a fortnight ago. Bred to be smart and also stay much further. Should do better in time.

Form: 5

Monhammer¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jim Crowley| T: W J Haggas

9/2

Excuses on debut and left that run well behind with a promising effort over C&D 14 days ago. Can do better still.

Form: 62

Nine Tales²⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian

11/10

€400,000 yearling by Kingman who made a promising start having been well backed in 7f Kempton event on debut in November. That is good form (winner now has Timeform rating of 111) and he'll improve.

Form: 2-

Adabbah

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke

12/1

320,000 gns yearling, $350,000 2-y-o, No Nay Never filly. Sister to high-class 6f winner Ten Sovereigns. Lots to like on paper, so newcomer is greatly respected. Well worth a market check.

Embla

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Paula Muir⁽³⁾| T: A D Brown

200/1

Albaasil filly. Dam 6f-7f winner out of useful 7f-9f winner Mamounia. Stiff introduction.

Marie Antoinette⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: P J McDonald| T: E Walker

10/3

Has made a promising start, still looking green at Nottingham (extended 1m) 10 weeks ago. Out of an Italian Oaks winner and she should have plenty more to offer.

Form: 34

Forecasts

Nine Tales (11/10), Marie Antoinette (10/3), Monhammer (9/2), Abbey Heights (10/1), Adabbah (12/1), Flatley (28/1), Jomont (50/1), King's Commander (66/1), Chadlington Lad (80/1), Embla (200/1)

MARIE ANTOINETTE has made a bright start and should have plenty more to offer as she gets to grips with the game. Back from a break she can get off the mark. Nine Tales is feared most after a promising debut at Kempton in November. Adabbah is an interesting newcomer.
