Al Shabab²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Davies⁽³⁾| T: A M Balding

5/1

Strong in the betting (9/4) but held back by inexperience when tenth of 12 in minor event at Newbury (6f, good to firm) on debut 28 days ago. Clearly thought capable of better and can leave his first run behind.

Drink Dry²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Morgan Cole⁽⁵⁾| T: M Botti

11/2

Still green but showed more than first time up when third of 8 in maiden at Epsom (7f, good to firm, 14/1) 3 weeks ago. Can give another good account.

Form: 43

Loaded Quiver⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| BF

8/11

Has shown promise both starts so far, still learning when second of 12 in minor event at Yarmouth (7f, good, 6/5) 9 days ago. Open to further improvement and he can open his account.

Form: 22

Waqif³⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: D C Costello| T: A W Carroll

200/1

Always behind on his first outing when eleventh of 12 in maiden at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm, 80/1) 38 days ago. Bred to be suited by this longer trip, but still looks to be up against it.

Speed Court¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Connor Planas⁽⁵⁾| T: H Kobeissi

50/1

Made little impact on his first start when sixth of 7 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good, 80/1) 12 days ago. Best watched.

Form: 6

Unleash Hell⁵⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Aidan Keeley⁽³⁾| T: Tom Dascombe

40/1

Has finished well held both starts to date, eighth of 13 in maiden at Leicester (7f, good to firm, 40/1) 54 days ago. Needs to leave previous efforts well behind having been gelded since last time.

Form: 78

My Lady Samantha^p1⁷⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes

25/1

Very green when eighth of 10 in minor event at Kempton (6f, 14/1) on debut 78 days ago. Needs to take a big step forward with cheekpieces now reached for.

Form: 8

Hope Joanna

Foaled May 22. €9,000 yearling, El Kabeir filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 5f winner Delizia and winner up to 7f Bowman, both useful. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 5f winner Dominica. Could go well on debut.

Forecasts

Loaded Quiver (8/11), Miguel (9/2), Al Shabab (5/1), Drink Dry (11/2), Compton Bay (10/1), Validated (20/1), Hope Joanna (22/1), My Lady Samantha (25/1), Upper Hand (25/1), Unleash Hell (40/1), Speed Court (50/1), Waqif (200/1)

LOADED QUIVER has found only one too good on both of his starts so far, still green when narrowly denied at Yarmouth 9 days ago, so he looks ready to get off the mark with further progress to come. Miguel showed plenty of ability on debut and is feared most upped in trip, ahead of Al Shabab.
