Accumulate³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian

4/7

Calyx colt who produced a promising first effort when second at Ascot and went one better at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 3 weeks later, despite still showing signs of inexperience. Useful prospect.

Form: 21

Baraq⁴⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott

50/1

7/1, sixth of 8 in novice at Chelmsford (1m) on debut 48 days ago. Might be more one for the longer term on that evidence.

Form: 6

(8)

Majed³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: J & T Gosden

5/2

Shaped well when second on his 7f Leicester debut (good) 37 days ago and the form has been boosted by the winner and third since. The one to beat with improvement on the cards.

Form: 2

My Noble Lord²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Jay Mackay⁽⁷⁾| T: M L W Bell

250/1

Twice-raced maiden. Twelfth of 13 in novice at Chelmsford (7f, 80/1) 20 days ago. Outsider.

Form: 80

(4)

Roi De France

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: K T O'Neill| T: J & T Gosden

14/1

Sea The Stars colt. Closely related to useful winner up to 12.4f Vaguely Royal. Majed has to be considered the yard's first string unless the betting strongly hints otherwise.

Toronto Raptor⁴²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Harry Davies| T: M L W Bell

33/1

50/1, seventh of 10 in maiden at Sandown (1m, soft) on debut 42 days ago. Should progress but fairly big step up needed to go close.

Form: 7

(7)

Alacrity³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: P J McDonald| T: A M Balding

12/1

9/2, third of 6 in maiden at Redcar (7f, good to firm) on debut 35 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve.

Form: 3

Opec¹⁹

125/1

5/1, sixth of 7 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) on debut 19 days ago. The fact she went off at a single-figure price suggests she's thought capable of better.

Forecasts

Accumulate (4/7), Majed (5/2), Alacrity (12/1), Roi De France (14/1), Ghostlore (14/1), Toronto Raptor (33/1), Baraq (50/1), Tattle O'day (100/1), Opec (125/1), My Noble Lord (250/1)

MAJED has had the form of his Leicester second boosted and should take a bit of stopping in receipt of weight from likely main danger Accumulate. Ghostlore is a newcomer to monitor closely in the betting.
