Oh Herberts Reign¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Hollie Doyle| T: R Hannon| OR: 90| D

4/1

Three-time winner as a juvenile, including 1m nursery wins at York and Doncaster in the autumn. Made a satisfactory return to action when fourth in Esher Cup at Sandown 15 days ago and he may well build on that effort here.

Form: 10115-4

Mystery Fox²⁰⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 87

7/2

Fairly useful 2-y-o who opened his account on his final outing of the campaign in a nursery at Goodwood 6 months ago. Should do better still this term.

Out From Under²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: K Shoemark| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 82

1/1

Showed race-by-race progression in his 3 starts last year and didn't need to improve to get off the mark in good style at Newmarket on reappearance, going on over 1f out and just kept up to work. Step up in trip should suit and he remains open to improvement in handicaps.

Form: 5D2-1

Aldhaja²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Jim Crowley| T: C Hills| OR: 82

10/1

War Front colt who was well backed to score on debut at Southwell (7f) in February. Stepped up when second under a penalty at Lingfield (1m) in March but found things too much thrown into a hot Newmarket contest for handicap/turf debut last time. Others preferred.

Form: 129

Stevenson²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: M R Channon| OR: 81| BF| D

12/1

Confirmed debut promise when scoring at Kempton in March and similar form switched to turf when third at Beverley last month. Worth a market check now sent handicapping.

Form: 313

Forecasts

Out From Under (1/1), Mystery Fox (7/2), Oh Herberts Reign (4/1), Muhtashim (4/1), Aldhaja (10/1), Stevenson (12/1), Flash The Dash (14/1)

OUT FROM UNDER didn't need to improve to get off the mark on return at Newmarket last month and with further progress on the cards now stepping up in trip, he looks the one to side with. Mystery Fox opened his account on his final 2-y-o start at Goodwood and with better expected this term, he heads the dangers, ahead of Ed Dunlop's hat-trick-seeking Muhtashim.
