British Stallion Studs EBF Spindrifter Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

Son of Soldier's Call who built considerably on debut run when readily landing a Ripon novice (6f) 11 days ago, value for fair bit extra than winning margin. This tougher but he's very much the type to go on improving. Respected.

Footstepsinthesand colt who put experience to good use when making all in Haydock novice (6f) in May. Had excuses at Epsom (6f) next time and this understandably much easier than his latest assignment in the Coventry at Royal Ascot.

Twilight Son colt. Confirmed promise of Haydock debut third when running out a comfortable winner of a York maiden (6f) 16 days ago, travelling powerfully and well on top finish. Rates a useful sprinting juvenile on that evidence and big player.

Foaled April 8. €25,000 yearling, £125,000 2-y-o, Havana Grey colt. Dam, maiden (stayed 1m), half-sister to useful winner up to 9.4f Duchess of Foxland. Well worth noting if the market speaks in his favour on debut.

Cotai Glory colt who again displayed fairly useful form when 2¾ lengths second of 7 to Twilight Romance in maiden at York (6f, good to firm, 9/2) 16 days ago, headed final 1f and no extra. Gets a 4 lb pull with that rival now but that may not be enough to reverse the placings here.
