American Star²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Oisin Murphy| T: E Walker| OR: 93| D

7/2

Generally progressive and made the most of a drop back in grade when a smooth winner of a 6-runner nursery at Newbury. May do better still, so warrants plenty of respect.

Form: 62191

Altraif^p1²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: David Egan| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 85| D

7/1

Put experience to good use when landing 10-runner novice at Kempton in September and made a reasonable start to nurseries when third to America Star at Newbury last time. Better off with that rival.

Form: 43213

Outgate²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Nicola Currie| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 84| D

11/2

Outstrip colt who is already a dual winner, finding improvement to land a Haydock nursery with something up his sleeve last time. The fast-finishing third from that day reopposes, but solid claims.

Form: 1371

Robasta³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 83

12/1

Fairly useful colt who gained a deserved first success on nursery debut at Ascot (6f, good) in July. Has shaped as if still in form since but this trip seemed to stretch him on his las try at it.

Form: 320186

Bullet Force³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Rossa Ryan| T: K R Burke| OR: 83| D

3/1

£95,000 Breeze-Ups purchase who made a pleasing start behind promising sorts in Sandown maidens. Landed odds at Musselburgh next time, then improved further when third in nursery at Doncaster. Player.

Form: 2213

Fabiosa⁴⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: C Lee| T: P D Evans| OR: 82

66/1

More exposed than the bulk of her rivals and seemingly struggling for form lately, so hard to make a case for.

Form: 464736

(4)

Point Lynas¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: W Buick| T: C Hills| OR: 78

9/1

Fair colt who has run with credit in novices the last twice, again finding only one too good at Chester a fortnight ago. He's vulnerable to less-exposed rivals, though.

Form: 362522

(7)

Exminster²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-4| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: E Bethell| OR: 76| D

13/2

Redcar maiden winner who was a big eye-catcher switched to nurseries when third to Outgate at Haydock last time, finishing strongly. Capable of defying this mark if he gets going soon enough.

Form: 133

Croupier²²

Forecasts

Bullet Force (3/1), American Star (7/2), Croupier (9/2), Outgate (11/2), Exminster (13/2), Altraif (7/1), Point Lynas (9/1), Robasta (12/1), Captain's Bar (20/1), Fabiosa (66/1)

EXMINSTER powered home from further back than the front pair when third at Haydock on nursery debut and is worth a chance to build on that promise at the likely expense of Outgate, who was two places ahead of him. Recent Newbury winner American Star is also considered.
