Tarjeeh⁴⁶³

11/8

Promising sort. Won 14-runner minor event at Newbury (7f, good, 7/2) on the second of his 2 starts as a juvenile. 15-month absence to overcome but otherwise appealing given his scope for improvement.

Siempre Arturo^h1

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Dylan Hogan| T: D & C Kubler

66/1

Outstrip gelding. Half-brother to 1m winner Glam Puss. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to useful 1½m winner (stayed 14.5f) Jeremiah. Wears hood on debut and probably best watched on this occasion.

150/1

Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 5 in maiden (66/1) at Ffos Las (12f, heavy) 82 days ago. Down in trip on debut for new yard and she's hard to warm to.

20/1

40,000 gns yearling, Muhaarar filly. Dam smart winner up to 1m (including at 2 yrs). Yard can ready one first time out and she needs a close look in the betting.

Forecasts

Tarjeeh (11/8), Leading Lion (11/4), Running Star (11/2), Elladonna (15/2), Tribute (12/1), Lohengrin (12/1), Meleki (20/1), Siempre Arturo (66/1), Mazzorbo (80/1), Looklikewemadeit (150/1), Hiccups (150/1), Savannah Song (250/1)

The well-bred TARJEEH hasn't been seen out since landing a Newbury novice last July, but he looked very promising that day and remains capable of better. If fully-tuned up for this assignment, he will take plenty of stopping. Elladonna and Leading Lion both stepped up on their respective debut efforts when hitting the crossbar last time and rate the main dangers, in that order of preference, while Running Star is another likely improver who could have a role to play.
