Caesar's Palace²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: R Coakley| T: S & E Crisford

100/1

Looks a longer-term project, still in need of the experience when sixth of 8 in a C&D maiden 3 weeks ago.

Form: 86

Duty Bound²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Hayley Turner| T: A M Balding

10/1

Badly needed the experience when fourth of 8 in a C&D maiden (good) on debut 21 days ago. Well-bred and likely to improve.

Form: 4

Glam De Vega²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Varian

3/1

Bred to be useful and showed plenty to work on when fifth of 12 in 7f novice event at Yarmouth (good to soft) on debut 23 days ago, not knocked about. Open to progress.

Kincade⁹

50/1

Twice-raced colt. 20/1, fourth of 9 in minor event at Redcar (9f, good to soft) 9 days ago, slowly away. Will be of more interest once sent handicapping over further next season.

Form: 54

Matched

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett

6/1

Foaled April 7. Teofilo colt. Half-brother to 6f-1m winner Cubism and 1m winner Basilisk. Dam 1m-1½m winner. Makes plenty of appeal on paper and one to note in the betting.

40/1

Shaped as if better for the run when sixth of 11 in 7f novice event at Leicester (soft, 66/1) on debut 22 days ago, not knocked about. Open to improvement.

25/1

Foaled April 7. Territories gelding. Half-brother to useful 7f winner Gypsy Whisper. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to smart 7f winner Buffalo River. Worth a market check.

Walk Of Stars¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Tom Marquand| T: C Appleby

Forecasts

Walk Of Stars (4/6), Glam De Vega (3/1), Matched (6/1), Duty Bound (10/1), Secret Army (25/1), Seal Of Solomon (25/1), Alyth (28/1), Golden Disc (40/1), Mr Rumbalicious (40/1), Kincade (50/1), Caesar's Palace (100/1), Hill Station (150/1)

WALK OF STARS is sure to do better once tackling middle distances next season, but he made an encouraging start to his career when third at Newmarket 2 weeks ago and is taken to build on that and make his second outing a winning one. Glam de Vega is another likely improver following a promising debut at Yarmouth, while Matched is an interesting newcomer requiring close market scrutiny.
