Watch My Tracer¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: Callum Shepherd| T: George Scott| OR: 97| BF| D

4/1

Has won 6f novices on fast ground at Windsor and Yarmouth and ran well in the Coventry in-between. Disappointing in sales race at Newmarket a fortnight ago though and work to do off his mark now handicapping.

Form: 1719

Nazalan¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: R Havlin| T: S Woods| OR: 85

5/1

Made all in 5f Sandown novice on second start but limitations rather exposed since, merely plugging on in C&D sales race 17 days ago. Step up needed now handicapping.

Form: 31378

Tropical Island²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: W Buick| T: R A Fahey| OR: 83

6/5

Won 5f Ripon maiden on debut in July and much more like it when going close over 6f in useful novice there 3 weeks ago. Looks well-in for her nursery debut with William Buick up. Plenty to like and sure to go well if breaking on terms (slowly away first 2 starts).

Form: 152

Batal Zabeel^b¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: Shane Gray| T: K A Ryan| OR: 81

11/2

Off the mark on handicap debut in 5f Beverley contest a fortnight ago, looking awkward again but coming clear late on. Respected back over 6f.

Form: 33251

Taygar¹⁰⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Cam Hardie| T: M Dods| OR: 79

14/1

Made a successful debut at Beverley early on. Better effort since when third at Redcar and that form is looking good (winner now rated 89, Big Evs in second rated 106, fourth on 95). Firm player if she can improve now handicapping after break up in trip.

Form: 163

Sennockian⁶³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-5| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 77| BF

18/1

Decent start in 5f/6f contests but ran a shocker at Ayr when last seen in July. Given a break and no surprise to see him get back on the up now handicapping.

Form: 2326

Forecasts

Tropical Island (6/5), Watch My Tracer (4/1), Media Shooter (9/2), Nazalan (5/1), Batal Zabeel (11/2), Taygar (14/1), Sennockian (18/1)

TROPICAL ISLAND looks well-in for her nursery debut after a fine effort at Ripon and makes plenty of appeal under William Buick. Batal Zabeel is feared most, although Taygar could do better now handicapping after a break with her Redcar form looking very good.
