Caruso⁴⁷⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Joe Bradnam⁽⁷⁾| T: M L W Bell

100/1

Fair form both starts on AW in 2022. Off 15 months. First run for yard after leaving James Fanshawe. Marked drop in trip surely against him on return (dam a 1¾m winner and sister to St Leger/Gold Cup winner Leading Light).

Form: 87/

Alhather⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Harry Davies| T: A M Balding

4/1

€92,000 foal, 160,000 gns yearling, Kodiac colt. Dam 7f winner out of useful 1m winner (stayed 1½m) Be My Queen. Second of 11 at Southwell (7.1f, 10/1) on debut 43 days ago. That was a promising start and he can improve. Good shout in this company.

Form: 2-

Cracking Gold

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J P Fahy| T: C G Cox

13/2

19,000 gns foal, €95,000 yearling, Havana Gold colt. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 7f-1m winner Crack On Crack On (by Havana Gold). Cost plenty and this newcomer could go well.

Forever Noah

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Raul Da Silva| T: R Varian

7/2

85,000 gns foal, €95,000 yearling, Dark Angel colt. Brother to winner up to 6f Mubaalegh and half-brother to several winners, including 1m winner Lord Tennyson and 7f winner Nibras Passion, both useful. Top yard 3 from 6 with their latest newcomers and obvious appeal first time up.

Form:

(9)

Jolty Jem

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick

66/1

Dandy Man gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including smart winner up to 11f Frutireu and useful 1¼m winner Return To Dubai. Dam maiden (stayed 7f).

Native Approach^h1

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: David Probert| T: C Appleby

5/6

Too Darn Hot colt. Closely related to smart 6f-1m winner Discovery Island and half-brother to 1¼m winner Theatre Honours. Wears hood. Highly respected on debut for top operation.

Northfield Lake³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: George Rooke| T: R J Smith

80/1

66/1, fourth of 9 at Lingfield (8f, AW) on debut 35 days ago.

Form: 4-

Hatadora²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Hayley Turner| T: R Hannon

33/1

Twice-raced filly. 25/1, seventh of 13 at this course (8f) 21 days ago, unable to sustain effort. She'll probably do better at some point as she gains in experience, perhaps in handicaps down the line.

Form: 5-7

Forecasts

Native Approach (5/6), Forever Noah (7/2), Alhather (4/1), Aljezur (4/1), Cracking Gold (13/2), Hatadora (33/1), Jolty Jem (66/1), Northfield Lake (80/1), Caruso (100/1), Lightning Bay (200/1)

NATIVE APPROACH makes plenty of appeal first time up for Godolphin and could be the way to go before market clues. Forever Noah is another interesting newcomer, while Alhather makes most appeal of those with experience.
