Horse A-Z
22½ lengths fourth of 7 to She's Notjoeking on C&D debut (good to soft, 5/1) 30 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot.

Timeform
Authorized gelding. Dam (c112/h116), 2½m-25f hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to useful chaser (stayed 25f) Russian Regent. Wears tongue strap on debut. One to note in the betting.

Horse silk
7/1
French-bred gelding who hails from a leading stable. Would enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong on debut.
|
Timeform
Ran out around halfway on his Aintree debut but proved more straightforward at Huntingdon a couple of weeks later, finishing fifth of 11. More will be needed here, though.
|
Timeform
Fared best of the newcomers when fourth of 11 in bumper at Doncaster (16.5f, good) 21 days ago, best work finish. Should be sharper with that experience behind him and leading claims.
|
Timeform
Milan filly who made a winning start to her career over C&D (good to soft) last month. Likely to be competitive under the penalty.
|
Timeform
21,000 gns Sea The Stars gelding. Half-brother to 2 winners on Flat, including fair 1¼m winner Just A Tad. Dam 2-y-o 1m winner who stayed 1½m. Makes some paper appeal for a race like this. Betting should guide.
|
Timeform
Kodiac gelding. Dam unraced. Likely outsider on debut.
|
Timeform
Telescope filly. Dam unraced. Stable 0-37 in bumpers in the last 5 seasons.

Horse silk
20/1
Telescope filly. Dam, fairly useful 2m hurdle winner (stayed 21f), closely related to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Skiddaw Tara. Stable has had a bumper winner in the last 5 seasons.

Horse silk
100/1
£4,000 3-y-o, Getaway filly. Half-sister to a point winner. The chances are she's best watched on debut.

Horse silk
40/1
Mondialiste filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including bumper winner/fair hurdle winner around 2m Casa No Mento and fair hurdler Red Reminder. One of 2 runners in the for Danny Brooke and the betting should help to separate them.

20/1
€3,500 Sholokhov filly. Half-sister to bumper winner Move Above and hurdler Western Rambler. Worth a precautionary betting check.

Hawkbill filly. Dam lightly raced on Flat. The market should guide.

Forecasts

Sycamore Gap (3/1), Opera King (4/1), She's Notjoeking (4/1), Kabuki (7/1), Authorized Mission (7/1), Knomorediamonds (12/1), Aire Spray (14/1), Rotarua (20/1), Gowan Pudsey (20/1), Pennine Park (40/1), Triumphal Arch (40/1), Sweet Hortense (50/1), Moveonbuy (100/1), Breadalbane Lass (125/1)

Verdict

OPERA KING showed plenty by the finish on his Doncaster debut and can build on that promise and see off last month's C&D scorer She's Notjoeking. Kabuki, Authorized Mission and Sycamore Gap are newcomers to note in the betting.
