Last Crusader^p¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S H James| T: K R Burke| OR: 97| D

8/1

Scored on debut at Ayr (6f) in July and showed plenty of pace when midfield in Gimcrack at York on penultimate start. Not in same form in France Group 3 last time but this less demanding.

Form: 1466

Chipotle²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 101

7/2

Won 3 of his first 4 starts, including the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot. Progress has rather levelled off, labouring over 2f out in Flying Childers on his most recent start. Still, this more suitable

Form: 619699

Mojomaker⁴⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: P Cosgrave| T: D Loughnane| OR: 88

4/1

Off the mark at Sandown (5f) in June and not disgraced faced with sterner assignments since, fifth in big-field sales' race at York (6f) in August. However, may find a few too good again.

Form: 421255

Lordman²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: P J McDonald| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 66

100/1

El Kabeir colt who has only run to a modest level on 2 of his 3 starts in novice/maiden company this summer and likely set for a struggle in this field.

Form: 653

Mot And The Messer³³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: T Eaves| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 91| D

12/1

Controlled things from the front when doubling career tally in 3-runner conditions' event at Chester (6f) in August. Poor effort when last of 11 in Ripon listed event 4 weeks later, though.

Form: 51710

Perfect Glory^p¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: J Fanning| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 70

80/1

Lightly-raced maiden who again ran below his early-season form (on back of being gelded) when seventh of 9 in a C&D nursery 10 days ago. Looks set for another struggle at this higher level.

Form: 43307

Vintage Clarets¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 100

10/3

Useful juvenile (third in Coventry at Royal Ascot) who may not have been well served by high draw when midfield in Ayr listed contest last month. Boasts sound claims on pick of his form and respected.

Form: 113686

(12)

Anadora²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: S A Gray| T: K A Ryan| OR: 87

18/1

Made winning start in one of the first 2-y-o races of the season at Newcastle (5f) in April. Ran with credit in stronger contests thereafter and better than she showed at Musselburgh last month.

Form: 137243

(11)

Glittering Choice^p⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Megan Nicholls| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 65

125/1

Modest form in trio of novice/maiden events at 6f to date and she needs to step up considerably if she's to figure up markedly in grade. Cheekpieces again the headgear of choice.

Form: 754

(14)

Symphony Perfect²³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Jason Watson| T: R Hannon| OR: 84| D

8/1

Second in the Super Sprint at Newbury in July and respectable efforts in similar big field events on each of last 2 starts. Worth a crack at 7f on balance but claims of getting involved.

Form: 212845

(15)

Atomise¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-4| J: Rowan Scott| T: C Fellowes

33/1

Ardad filly who proved easy to back but showed promise when keeping on for fourth in a Yarmouth novice (6f) 16 days ago, without being knocked about. Likely improver with that under her belt.

Form: 4

(2)

Roman Dragon⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-3| J: J Quinn| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 84| D

9/1

Stepped up on opening efforts when dominating pair of Chester novice events (6f) earlier this term. Well held from poor position in York nursery latest and not one to be writing off.

Form: 251120

May Blossom^v¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-1| J: J P Sullivan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 79

33/1

Fair winning filly who ran up to best when 1 length third in a class 5 novice over 5f here 18 days ago. However, she ran one of her lesser races when last tried over 6f.

Form: 719343

(9)

Poetikel Piece²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-1| J: D Fentiman| T: Adrian Nicholls

16/1

Daughter of Mayson who really caught the eye when debut sixth of 8 in maiden at Haydock (6f, firm) 20 days ago, travelling strongly long way. Open to lots of improvement but this a big step up.

Form: 6

(10)

Too Funky²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-1| J: Joanna Mason| T: R Spencer

100/1

Mayson filly. Sister to 2-y-o 5f/5.4f winner May Girl. Sent off at 25/1 but showed ability amidst greenness when sixth in 10-runner Sandown maiden (5f). However, much more needed up in class.

Form: 6

Vintage Clarets (10/3), Chipotle (7/2), Mojomaker (4/1), Last Crusader (8/1), Symphony Perfect (8/1), Roman Dragon (9/1), Mot And The Messer (12/1), Poetikel Piece (16/1), Anadora (18/1), Atomise (33/1), May Blossom (33/1), Perfect Glory (80/1), Lordman (100/1), Too Funky (100/1), Glittering Choice (125/1)

VINTAGE CLARETS quickly made up in to a useful juvenile this term, twice successful over 5f prior to finishing a solid third in the Coventry at Royal Ascot in June. Not so well served by a high draw at Ayr on his latest start, he's fancied to be firmly in the mix now. Chipotle will find this easier than recent assignments and is feared, along with Symphony Perfect.
