Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox| D

13/8

Promising start when winning 8-runner maiden at Haydock (6f, firm) last month, well on top finish. Could be useful.

Form: 1

(6)

Antiphon¹⁸⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding

10/11

Encouraging third of 8 in novice at Newmarket (5f) on debut in April. Had a couple of subsequent Group winners behind him on that occasion. Taken a while to get him back but open to progress.

Form: 3

Aussie Banker

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P Cosgrave| T: R Hughes

25/1

£40,000 Muhaarar colt. Closely related to 2-y-o 6f winner Aussie Showstopper. Dam, 6.5f-1m winner, half-sister to smart 6f-8.4f winner Ceremonial Jade. Betting should help guide to expectations.

Jack Leslie

28/1

34,000 gns Twilight Son gelding. Closely related to 5f winner Enough Said and half-brother to 5.7f/6f winner Portelet Bay. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Bred to be sharp. Check betting.

Nonsuch Lad¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Bennett| T: J R Boyle

125/1

Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 13 in novice (50/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 19 days ago, needing stiffer test.

Form: 86

(5)

This Is My Half¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ryan Tate| T: A W Carroll

250/1

Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in novice at this course (7f, 200/1) 13 days ago. Surely more one for handicaps after this.

Form: 76

(7)

Lady Rowah²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: D C Costello| T: J & S Quinn

150/1

33/1, sixth of 7 in novice at Ripon (6f, good to firm) on debut 24 days ago. Needs to leave that well behind.

Form: 6

(2)

Sharesa²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston

4/1

Fair form when in the frame on both starts, although she was quite comfortably held by Whoputfiftyinyou at Haydock on debut.

Form: 34

Forecasts

Antiphon (10/11), Whoputfiftyinyou (13/8), Sharesa (4/1), Aussie Banker (25/1), Jack Leslie (28/1), Nonsuch Lad (125/1), Lady Rowah (150/1), This Is My Half (250/1)

WHOPUTFIFTYINYOU was well on top at the finish on his Haydock debut last month and looks capable of defying a penalty. It's a bit of a concern that Antiphon has been absent since his Newmarket debut in the spring but there were some good horses in that race and he could pose a significant threat if the betting vibes are positive on his return.
