Almutawakel⁵⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: K T O'Neill| T: Owen Burrows| BF

9/4

Promising sort. 7/4, went backwards from debut when fourth of 8 in minor event at Epsom (7f, good to firm) 58 days ago. Should still improve bearing in mind initial promise.

Form: 24

(4)

Blindedbythelights¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott

20/1

Protectionist colt who looked badly in need of the experience when seventh of 11 in maiden at Yarmouth (7f, good) on debut 10 days ago. One for the longer term.

Form: 7

(7)

Cinnodin³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: P Cosgrave| T: R Hughes

50/1

Anodin colt who showed little on debut when last of 11 in minor event at Kempton (8f) 31 days ago. Huge step forward required.

Form: 0

(8)

Dagmar Run

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Shepherd| T: D M Simcock

15/2

Foaled March 11. £14,000 yearling, 22,000 gns 2-y-o, Muhaarar colt. Dam ran twice out of useful 7f-1m winner Mundana.

Endangered⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Paddy Bradley⁽³⁾| T: S Kirk

33/1

Showed a bit more than on debut when sixth of 10 in minor event (150/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 7 days ago. Others make more appeal on this qualifying run.

Form: 06

(5)

Palace View²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: R A Teal

4/7

Showed plenty of ability amidst greenness when third of 12 in minor event at Kempton (7f, 100/1) on debut 22 days ago, finishing with running left. Sure to improve on that initial effort, he's likely to take all the beating.

Form: 3

Belardo Joy¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: T P Queally| T: C & M Johnston

40/1

Belardo colt who showed only greenness when last of 8 in maiden at Newcastle (7.1f) on debut 19 days ago.

Form: 8

(2)

Smokin Joe¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Charlie Bennett| T: M R Channon

80/1

Twice-raced gelding. Showed a bit more than on debut when third of 5 in maiden at Brighton (7f, good, 12/1) 12 days ago. Plenty more needed to feature.

Form: 63

Forecasts

Palace View (4/7), Almutawakel (9/4), Dagmar Run (15/2), Blindedbythelights (20/1), Endangered (33/1), Belardo Joy (40/1), Cinnodin (50/1), Smokin Joe (80/1)

PALACE VIEW got the hang of things late when finishing a staying-on third at Kempton just over 3 weeks ago and, with progress on the cards now upped to 1m, Roger Teal's charge is fancied to come out on top. Almutawakel was disappointing bearing in mind his debut promise when down the field at Epsom last time but he can give the selection most to think about today, while any support for newcomer Dagmar Run should also be noted.
