Broomy Law¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Jonathan Fisher⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 71

15/2

Quirky sort. 11/1, first run since leaving Kevin Ryan when fifth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 12 days ago. Steps back down in trip now and claims of hitting the frame.

Form: 335-245

(8)

Dark Icon¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Harry Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: J Butler

125/1

Once-raced maiden. Fourth of 6 in minor event (28/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) on debut 12 days ago, left behind over 2f out. Probably one for later on.

Form: 4

(1)

Kaahira¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: D Loughnane

16/1

Kingman filly who hasn't gone without promise in a pair of AW minor events of late, fading late on when fifth of 10 at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 17 days ago. Remains the type to do better.

Form: 45

(7)

Criollo²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Cieren Fallon| T: W J Haggas| OR: 79| D

5/6

Dark Angel filly who confirmed debut promise when landing 8-runner minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW) 29 days ago, responding well. Rates an obvious player again with potential for better still.

Form: 31

(3)

Banbrook Boy⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Dayverson De Barros| T: G Boughey

33/1

Rock Of Gibraltar colt who was easy to back but showed a bit when seventh of 12 in a Kempton maiden (7f) 8 days ago. Still, he rates a likely type for later on.

Form: 7

(9)

Kenilworth King¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: R Havlin| T: W Jarvis

17/2

$500,000 foal, 55,000 gns 2-y-o, Kitten's Joy colt. Ran green and never posed a threat when eighth of 11 in a 1m maiden ehre on debut 2 weeks ago. Another likely type for further down the line.

Form: 8

(6)

Simply Sondheim⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Jason Hart| T: G Boughey

100/1

Pivotal colt. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart 7f winner Dutch Connection. Showed only greenness when last of 12 in a Kempton maiden (7f) 8 days ago.

Form: 0

(5)

Naadyaa

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: David Probert| T: Owen Burrows

5/2

Muhaarar filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart winner up to 9f Emmrooz and 7f winner Owaseyf. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Makes appeal on paper and one to note in an ordinary novice on debut

Form:

Photo Bomb²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: George Rooke⁽³⁾| T: Rae Guest

22/1

Once-raced maiden. 33/1, eighth of 9 in maiden at Kempton (7f) on debut 29 days ago, in rear and never a threat.

Form: 8

Forecasts

Criollo (5/6), Naadyaa (5/2), Broomy Law (15/2), Kenilworth King (17/2), Kaahira (16/1), Photo Bomb (22/1), Banbrook Boy (33/1), Simply Sondheim (100/1), Dark Icon (125/1)

CRIOLLO took a step forward as expected from debut when running out a good winner of a Lingfield minor event over this trip 4 weeks ago, and with potential for better still, she looks worth siding with to follow up. Newcomer Naadyaa makes appeal on paper and is worth a look if strong in betting. Kaahira may do best of the others, ahead of Broomy Law.
