6/1
Roaring Lion colt who matched pick of his turf form when runner-up on qualifying run in Chelmsford novice 44 days ago. albeit not looking straightforward (hung badly left). Remains early days and cheekpieces may have positive effect now handicapping up in trip.

8/15
Siyouni colt who put experience to good use from the front when landing 11-runner Wolverhampton novice (9.5f) 16 days ago, displaying a willing attitude. More to come again now handicapping and bred to relish this longer trip. Lots to like.

Thrice-raced maiden. 15/2, third of 12 at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 35 days ago, carrying head awkwardly but running on late. Cheekpieces reached for now and not out of things over longer trip.

Career best when winning 8-runner nursery (8/13) at Chelmsford City (10f) 39 days ago, impressing with his attitude as he overcame loads of trouble in the straight. This is tougher.

Forecasts

Mighty River (8/15), Cavern Club (4/1), Kingsley Pride (6/1), Look Back Smiling (12/1), Mirabello Bay (22/1)

Verdict

A unique nursery run over 11 furlongs that can go to MIGHTY RIVER. He battled well when opening his account at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago and now goes handicapping over a trip that will be right up his street. Kingsley Pride and Cavern Club both have headgear fitted and could have more to offer themselves with their stamina drawn out further.
