Amor Vincit Omnia⁴³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: R Kingscote| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 84| BF

5/1

Stepped up on debut run when fifth of 6 to Masekela in listed race at Newbury (7f, good) in August. Matched that form back in novice company next time so he could have a say on handicap bow.

Form: 954

El Hibri¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Dane O'Neill| T: B J Meehan| OR: 79| BF

15/2

Placed all 4 starts and has finished runner-up on last 3, latest in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 13 days ago. One to consider on handicap debut.

Form: 3222

Superior Force²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Oisin Murphy| T: G Boughey| OR: 78| BF

9/2

Made a winning debut at Salisbury in May and has proven consistent rather than progressive since, latest when fourth of 9 in nursery at Redcar last month. One to note upped further in trip.

Form: 12054

Dukedom¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: W Buick| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 77

2/1

Superbly-bred but followed an encouraging start with a disappointing showing back at Sandown in July. Failed to deliver again at Newmarket earlier this month and more needed on handicap debut.

Form: 245

Liamarty Dreams⁴²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: B A Curtis| T: K R Burke| OR: 77| D

10/1

Off the mark in a Newcastle novice in July but hasn't appeared to have much in hand since switched to nurseries. Looks vulnerable again.

Form: 23147

The Dunkirk Lads²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 75

14/1

Opened his account in 5.8f novice at Carlisle in July and cast aside a couple of heavy defeats in nurseries when runner-up at Chester last month. Similar form at Ayr since so more needed to figure.

Allen Key¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 73

22/1

Fair colt who having sweated up beforehand, ran his best race to date when fourth of 11 in maiden at Newcastle (7.1f) 18 days ago, fading only late on. Opening mark looks fair so he's not ruled out.

Form: 5454

Hollow Steel^p¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: A Mullen| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 71| D

11/1

Off the mark at Ripon in July and made a winning start in nurseries at Thirsk next time. Resumed progress upped in trip when runner-up last month and she enters calculations nudged up 2 lb.

Form: 641142

Round Acre²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: P Hanagan| T: E Bethell| OR: 69| BF

16/1

Went off favourite for her nursery debut but failed to improve when fifth of 12 at Leicester (6f, good) 25 days ago. Will need to take a big step forward to feature.

Form: 5225

May Punch^p²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-4| J: L Morris| T: T D Easterby| OR: 67

40/1

Well backed and took a step forward in first-time cheekpieces when third on nursery bow at Ripon in August, but below that level back in novice company the last twice. Eased 2 lb so could have a say.

Form: 533364

Dukedom (2/1), Magic Warrior (4/1), Superior Force (9/2), Amor Vincit Omnia (5/1), El Hibri (15/2), Liamarty Dreams (10/1), Hollow Steel (11/1), The Dunkirk Lads (14/1), Round Acre (16/1), Allen Key (22/1), Raging (25/1), May Punch (40/1)

MAGIC WARRIOR ran well despite the drop back to sprinting catching him out a touch at Nottingham last month. With this step up in trip looking the way to go, Richard Hannon's charge is taken to double his tally. Hollow Steel resumed her progress when runner-up at Ffos Las last time but she may have to settle for silver once again, ahead of Superior Force.
