Atomic Impact³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: K R Burke

9/2

20/1, not ideally placed when fifteenth of 18 in maiden at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) on debut 30 days ago. No surprise to see a better showing for yard enjoying fantastic year with their 2-y-os.

Derwent Boy⁷⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: G Lee| T: Miss J A Camacho

12/1

100/1, green but some encouragement when sixth of 8 in minor event at Haydock (6f, good to soft) on debut 78 days ago. Needs to build on that effort.

Form: 6

Fortunate Star

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Zak Wheatley⁽⁵⁾| T: D Carroll

28/1

€5,500 yearling. Unfortunately gelding. Half-brother to winner in Italy by Lethal Force. Dam winner up to 6f (2-y-o 5f winner). Tough task as the only debutant in the line-up.

Mint Edition²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: O J Orr| T: E Bethell

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, showed similar level of form to previous start when sixth of 11 in maiden at Pontefract (6f, good) 22 days ago. Improvement required.

Form: U56

Pride Of Yorkshire¹⁰⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan

14/1

Had shown promise on debut but ran no sort of race when last of 8 in maiden (4/1) at Hamilton (5f, good to firm). Needs to get back on track following a break of 109 days.

Form: 48

Reward Smile^t⁷¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: H Palmer

11/2

Tongue strap on for 1st time, ran to similar level as on debut when fourth of 7 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good, 9/4) 71 days ago, not unduly punished. Can make his presence felt.

Form: 34

Tremendous Times³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods

13/2

Matched the form of his first start when fourth of 10 in maiden at Newcastle (7.1f, 13/2) 33 days ago. More needed.

Form: 44

Trojan Legend²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Hart| T: C & M Johnston

20/1

33/1, showed bit more than on debut when seventh of 9 in maiden at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) 26 days ago, though again failed to see his race out. Others make more appeal.

Form: 87

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey

10/3

Promise amidst greenness when second of 11 in minor event at Ripon (6f, good, 11/1) on debut 24 days ago. Can go one better with improvement to come.

Form: 2

4/1, in need of the experience when fourth of 6 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) on debut 19 days ago. Should know more this time around.

150/1

33/1, green when last of 11 in minor event at Ripon (6f, good) on debut 24 days ago. Looks one for further down the line.

Forecasts

Barefoot Angel (10/3), River Naver (4/1), Atomic Impact (9/2), Reward Smile (11/2), Tremendous Times (13/2), Derwent Boy (12/1), Pride Of Yorkshire (14/1), Mint Edition (14/1), Trojan Legend (20/1), Fortunate Star (28/1), Truly Charming (150/1), Little Red Dancer (200/1)

BAREFOOT ANGEL did well to finish second on debut considering her greenness and, although beaten 6 lengths, the winner has gone on to land the Lowther at York. She can build on her first racecourse experience to open her account, with the William Haggas-trained River Naver feared most. Reward Smile completes the shortlist.
