Castle Way²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby

4/9

Almanzor colt who looked potentially useful as he found only a stablemate with experience too good at Newmarket (8f, good) just under 3 weeks ago. Sure to improve, he may well take some stopping today.

Form: 2

(3)

King Me

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

16/1

Foaled April 19. 55,000 gns yearling, Kingman colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 1m-1¼m winner Uae Jewel and 1m winner Nugget, both smart. Dam 2-y-o 7f/1m winner who stayed 1½m. Market check advised.

Lion Kingdom²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Cieren Fallon| T: J R Fanshawe

28/1

Roaring Lion colt who comes from a talented US family but ran to only a modest level when fourth of 5 in minor event at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) on debut just over 3 weeks ago. Should do better in time.

Form: 4

(5)

Orchestra¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: O J Orr| T: E A L Dunlop

100/1

Golden Horn colt who shaped as if in need of the experience when ninth of 14 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f) on debut 16 days ago. Tough to recommend on that evidence.

Form: 9

(6)

Paisano²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Jim Crowley| T: R M Beckett

9/2

Dubawi colt who showed plenty of ability on debut when third of 10 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 27 days, headed over 1f out having made most. Open to improvement stepped up in trip so he's one for the shortlist.

Form: 3

(8)

Tellateller²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S Hitchcott| T: R Hannon

13/2

Kessaar colt who produced a promising first effort when runner-up in minor event at this C&D (good) last month, probably seen to advantage the way the race was run. Open to improvement, he's another who may well have a say in proceedings.

Form: 2

Forecasts

Castle Way (4/9), Paisano (9/2), Tellateller (13/2), Garden Route (7/1), I Still Have Faith (12/1), King Me (16/1), Lion Kingdom (28/1), Orchestra (100/1)

CASTLE WAY went into many notebooks having found only his stablemate with experience too good in a Newmarket maiden just under 3 weeks ago. Sure to improve with that initial outing under his belt, Charlie Appleby's colt may well take some stopping today. Paisano and Tellateller both showed promise first time up last month and they can chase the selection home in that order, although strong support for either newcomer would put a slightly different slant on things.
