50/1
Foaled March 6. Mehmas colt. 16/1, last of 11 in minor event at Kempton (6f) on debut 20 days ago, soon detached and always behind. This ought to reveal a good deal more.

Foaled February 25. £5,000 yearling, 19,000 gns 2-y-o, Dandy Man colt. Dam unraced out of useful 2-y-o 6f winner Silca Chiave. Market should unearth some clues ahead of debut.

5/1
Foaled May 2. Invincible Spirit colt. Half-brother to 6f winner Alafdhal. Dam once-raced half-sister to smart 7f/1m winner Efaadah out of smart performer up to 10.5f Albaraah. Market confidence would need to be viewed positively on debut.

9/4
Expensive breeze-up buy who shaped with plenty of promise when second of 8 in novice event at Lingfield (6f, AW) on debut in May, finishing strongly behind one boasting previous experience. Player.

13/2
Thrice-raced maiden. Much-improved on opening pair of exploits when fourth of 12 in maiden (66/1) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 19 days ago, well positioned. Shouldn't be far away with a repeat.

Demi Pointe201
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-2| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian
5/4
Pivotal filly who is bred to be useful but shaped as if needing the experience when sixth of 10 in maiden (17/2) at Goodwood (6f, good) on debut in May. Another who has been absent since and she's very much the type to do better.

Timeform
Foaled January 25. 12,500 gns foal, Harry Angel filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful 5f/6f winner Mickey The Steel and winner up to 1¼m Red Gunner. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 6f winner). Yard's newcomers usually better for initial experience.

Forecasts

Demi Pointe (5/4), The X O (9/4), Tawalla (5/1), Umming N' Ahing (13/2), Hitched (28/1), Lady Beechfield (33/1), Fadi (50/1), Fayasel (66/1), Mikka (250/1)

Verdict

THE X O has been absent since finishing runner-up at Lingfield in the spring but he impressed with his strength at the finish for hands-and-heels riding and he can confirm the promise of that run and come out on top on return. Demi Pointe looked in need of the experience on her respective debut at Goodwood in May and is a likely improver for her leading yard. Newcomer Tawalla and Umming N' Ahing complete the shortlist.
