18/1

£12,000 yearling, Galileo Gold gelding. Tenth of 11 in maiden at Leicester (7f, good to firm, 18/1) on debut 39 days ago, losing place halfway and no chance after. This should reveal more.

Ohnojoe²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Phil Dennis| T: Olly Williams

15/2

Speedily-bred sort who was green but shaped with a little encouragement when third of 15 in minor event at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) on debut 21 days ago, keeping on for hands-and-heels riding. Rates a likely improver.

Form: 3

We'renotreallyhere⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 74

10/3

Camacho gelding who stepped up markedly on debut effort when second in 15-runner Thirsk novice (6f) last month. Similar form when sixth of 15 at Ayr (6f) since and he's entitled to be thereabouts again.

Form: 726

Habana Flyer¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: A Elliott| T: K R Burke

11/1

Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in minor event at York (5f, good to firm, 100/1) 12 days ago. This more suitable but possible he'll be one for handicaps later on.

Form: 57

Highland Mac⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: B A Curtis| T: G Boughey| BF

13/2

£15,000 yearling. Gleneagles filly. Half-sister to useful winners up to 6f Dressed In Fur and Impressor. 1/3, finished close-up third in 4-runner Bath maiden (5f) on debut 8 days ago, bumped final 1f and no extra. Rates the type to do better.

Form: 3

(5)

Love Fifteen¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ryan Sexton⁽⁵⁾| T: A Keatley

4/1

Twice-raced maiden. Stepped up on debut effort when third of 11 in novice event at Ripon (6f, good to firm) 16 days ago. That still only modest form but that unlikely to prove her limit.

Form: 83

Forecasts

We'renotreallyhere (10/3), Love Fifteen (4/1), Bem Te Vi (13/2), Highland Mac (13/2), Mahalik (7/1), Ohnojoe (15/2), Habana Flyer (11/1), Jack Too (18/1), Spireite Boy (20/1), Knights Artist (25/1), Naughty Ted (66/1)

WE'RENOTREALLYHERE stepped up on his debut effort when runner-up at Thirsk in June and, having run to a similar level when midfield in another big-field affair at Ayr subsequently, he could be worth siding with to put his experience to good use. Highland Mac, for George Boughey, and Ohnojoe, who ran well himself on debut at Thirsk, are next best. Mahalik is one to monitor in the betting of the newcomers.
