6/5

Foaled March 9. 80,000 gns foal, Golden Horn colt. Half-brother to useful winner up to 6f Regional. Top yard boasts a 19% strike rate with 2-y-os on the AW this year and he's a likely-looking type.

150/1

Foaled May 7. €7,500 foal, 12,000 gns yearling, Galileo Gold gelding. Dam maiden (stayed 8.5f). Yard rarely strikes with newcomers and probably best watched on this occasion.

Nolton Cross²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: R Coakley| T: H Palmer

7/4

Promising individual. 66/1, fourth of 12 in minor event at Kempton (8f) on debut 29 days ago, keeping on well. Will improve for the experience and a bold show is very much on the cards.

Form: 4

Polyphonic

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke

11/1

Foaled April 7. 65,000 gns foal, Sea The Stars colt. Dam winner up to 9f (French Group 3 winner, and 2-y-o 7f winner). Yard can ready a newcomer and interesting to see what the market has to say.

Ramamaras Boy³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: S England

150/1

Once-raced maiden. 125/1, eighth of 9 in minor event at this course (6f) on debut 33 days ago. Significantly up in trip and he's very hard to make a case for.

Form: 8

16/1

Foaled January 11. Churchill colt. Half-brother to several winners, including useful 1m winner Toinette and 1¼m/11f winner Mutinne. Very much one to note in the betting.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Miss J A Camacho

66/1

Foaled January 21. Showcasing filly. Dam once-raced half-sister to winner up to 1m Royal Banker out of smart 2-y-o 6f winner Regal Rose. Yard's newcomers usually better for a run.

Forecasts

Franz Strauss (6/5), Nolton Cross (7/4), Eydon (15/2), Polyphonic (11/1), Wadacre Tir (16/1), Cartridge (20/1), Boasted (66/1), Big Things (66/1), Ramamaras Boy (150/1), Midas (150/1)

Several of the newcomers are appealing on paper but this is best left to NOLTON CROSS, who shaped like a ready-made future winner when fourth on debut at Kempton last month. The Dark Angel colt is bound to come on for that run and his yard has been among the winners of late. Of the newcomers, Franz Strauss, Eydon, Polyphonic and Wadacre Tir are all of interest, particularly the first-named.
