18/1
Twice-raced gelding. Fourth of 11 in minor event at Redcar (6f, heavy, 13/2) 10 days ago. Probably more one for handicaps in due course.

5/1
€85,000 foal, 100,000 gns yearling. Closely related to 6f winner Liv Lucky and half-brother to 11f winner Living State, plus and useful 5f-7f winner Live. Lots to like on paper and yard no stranger to success with 2-y-o newcomers, so he's one to note in the betting.

Once-raced colt. 9/1, fourth of 7 in minor event at Salisbury (7f, heavy) on debut 25 days ago. WIll need to leave that form well behind if he's to emerge on top here, but in good hands and should do better in time.

Once-raced gelding. 100/1, last of 12 in minor event at Redcar (7f, good) on debut 23 days ago. Readily passed over.

3/1
Twice-raced colt. 9/4, third of 11 in minor event at Kempton (6f) 12 days ago. That was his first appearance for 3 months and, likely to be sharper now, he's one to consider.

Foaled April 22. €12,000 foal, €40,000 yearling, Ribchester colt. Half-brother to 7f/1m winner Helen de Pourtales. Market should point the way.

Foaled March 9. 25,000 gns yearling, Aclaim colt. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Yard seldom strikes with newcomers, so it's probably best to look elsewhere on this occasion.

250/1
Once-raced gelding. Last of 13 in minor event (66/1) at Redcar (7f, good) on debut 23 days ago. Like stablemate EmmemmcEe, he's easy enough to take on.

Foaled April 18. 24,000 gns yearling, Zoustar colt. Brother to 2-y-o 7f winner Zu Run, and half-brother to 5f winner Laith Alareen and smart 5f winner Nymphadora. Represents a top yard and it'll be interesting to see what the market has to say.

1/1
Promising individual. 10/1, second of 9 in maiden at Southwell (7.1f) on debut 20 days ago, missing break. Will be more street-wise this time and presented with a good opportunity to go one better.

Foaled April 11. €42,000 foal, Magna Grecia filly. Closely related to 7f winner Smooth Spirit. Dam 6f winner (including at 2 yrs). Yard's newcomers typically come on for a run.

Forecasts

Completed (1/1), Al Saif (3/1), Swift Storm (5/1), Viridian (11/1), Yippee (16/1), Beale Street (18/1), Venture Capital (28/1), Boyd Crowder (40/1), Lumenbourg (100/1), Polyphema (150/1), Old Bailey (250/1), Emmemmcee (300/1)

Verdict

Having shaped with a good deal of promise when runner-up on debut at Southwell, COMPLETED looks the way to go. She is bred to be useful and may well live up to her pedigree in time. Swift Storm ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper and it will look significant if the market speaks in his favour. The Invincible Army colt is second choice ahead of Al Saif, who should pick up a race before long judged on what he has shown in novice events at Newbury and Kempton.
