7/2
Fairly useful 7f winner who made an encouraging return when third at Ascot in May but below form both starts since, including on handicap debut last time. Cheekpieces now go on.

Made second start a winning one at Newcastle (7f) in December, despite still looking raw. Run best excused at Chelmsford 3 months later having been slowly away and remains with plenty of potential.

Took another step forward to get off the mark on handicap debut at Thirsk (7f) in June. Respectable efforts have followed, and he could still have a bit more to offer.

4/1
Progressive filly who overcame a troubled passage to land a 1m Newmarket handicap in June. A shade underwhelming in her follow-up bid at Haydock but she could yet get back on the up.

Forecasts

Duty Of Care (2/1), Tadreeb (2/1), Ready To Venture (7/2), Baby Alya (4/1)

Verdict

DUTY OF CARE was soon on the back foot following a slow start at Chelmsford, and is much better judged on his Newcastle win the time before, so he remains a horse to be positive about, especially given his top pedigree. Baby Alya was a shade underwhelming at Haydock last time but could yet get back on the up.
