Arcadian Friend⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott

125/1

Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 12 in minor event (66/1) at Southwell (8.1f) on debut 8 days ago. Probably more one for handicaps later on.

Form: 8

(2)

Awaal¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: James Doyle| T: S & E Crisford

2/1

Promising sort. 11/2, third of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut 14 days ago, best work finish. Open to improvement and he has to enter calculations.

Form: 3

(11)

Heathen⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Rhys Clutterbuck⁽³⁾| T: E A L Dunlop

66/1

Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 12 in minor event (25/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 8 days ago, needing stiffer test. Likely to do better in time, with handicaps an option after this run.

Form: 95

(10)

Medrara¹⁹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian

14/1

Once-raced maiden. 8/1, seventh of 15 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, soft) on debut/sole 2-y-o start, slowly away. In good hands and likely to leave that form well behind in time.

Form: 7-

(5)

Shockwaves¹⁹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Levey| T: H Morrison

22/1

Once-raced maiden. Seventh of 10 in minor event (12/1) at Newbury (8f, heavy) on debut, not clear run. Off 6 months. That experience won't be wasted on him and improvement should be forthcoming.

Form: 7-

Sir Alfred M^h¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Mrs A J Perrett

125/1

Once-raced maiden. Hooded, last of 11 in minor event at Salisbury (7f, good to firm, 125/1) on debut 13 days ago. Readily passed over.

Form: 0

Tashkent¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon

50/1

Once-raced maiden. 22/1, twelfth of 17 in maiden at Newbury (8f, good) on debut 17 days ago. Sizeable step forward will be needed if he's to make an impact here.

Form: 0

Thesis¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: R L Moore| T: H & R Charlton

1/2

Promising sort. 5/2, second of 17 in maiden at Newbury (8f, good) 17 days ago. This well-bred colt remains with potential and should make a bold bid to go one better here.

Form: 3-2

Everloving²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Joshua Bryan| T: J Tuite

125/1

Once-raced maiden. 33/1, eleventh of 13 in minor event at Kempton (7f) on debut 27 days ago. Hard to warm to.

80/1

Once-raced maiden. Tenth of 13 in maiden (100/1) at Chelmsford City (6f) on debut. Off 11 months and moves up in trip here. Easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 0-

Vazire¹³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding

16/1

Promising individual. 15/2 and hooded, third of 10 in minor event at this course (7f, AW) on debut in December, slowly away. Will be more street-wise this time and can make her presence felt.

Form: 3-

Forecasts

Thesis (1/2), Awaal (2/1), Medrara (14/1), Vazire (16/1), Shockwaves (22/1), Tashkent (50/1), Heathen (66/1), Leyla's Power (80/1), Arcadian Friend (125/1), Everloving (125/1), Sir Alfred M (125/1)

Several of these are open to improvement, not least THESIS, who showed plenty of promise on his sole 2-y-o start and there was much to like about the way he travelled through the race when runner-up on return at Newbury recently. Awaal should be up to winning a race or two before long judged on his debut third at Wolverhampton and is next on the list, while Vazire is also considered on the strength of her encouraging introduction here in December.
