Son of Ten Sovereigns who progressed with each outing as a 2-y-o for Charlie Fellowes, good third of 12 in novice at Yarmouth (7f) in October. Changed hands for 28,000 gns/gelded thereafter and very much the type to go om improving now handicapping.

Winner at Lingfield in October. 10/1, fourth of 6 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 14 days ago. Up in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter.

5/1
Lightly-raced maiden who ran up to best having been gelded when fourth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (7f) in October. Absent again since but this step up in trip could well play to his strengths with cheekpieces now enlisted.

15/2
Better with each outing in maiden/novice company, off the mark over 7f here in June. Didn't kick on in trio of handicap starts thereafter last summer and market may prove a useful guide as to expectations back from 6 months off.

Fair gelding. Winner at Leicester (7f) in August prior to a good second from 6 lb higher mark at Newcastle (7f) later that month. Not at same level in 2 starts thereafter though and has since left Tom Dascombe.

9/2
Thrice-raced maiden. 22/1, third of 12 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good). Off 8 months. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut and she could well have more to offer now stamina is tested further. Had wind op.

18/1
Thrice-raced maiden who readily surpassed previous efforts when second of 13 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 100/1) 34 days ago, ridden over 2f out and keeping on. Cheekpieces/tongue tie go on for handicap debut and return to further shouldn't hold any fears.

Forecasts

Master Franca (7/2), My Margie (9/2), Wait And Hope (9/2), Never Sell (5/1), Yaajooz (11/2), Persian Phoenix (15/2), Dan Dee Prince (11/1), Jolty Jem (18/1)

Verdict

Despite looking a work-in-progress, YAAJOOZ encouragingly showed race-by-race progress in a trio of novice events for Charle Fellowes as a juvenile and, gelded ahead of this yard/handicap debut, he's fancied to prove his opening mark a lenient one. Wait And Hope comes here in form and is feared, whilst Jolty Jem and My Margie are a couple of handicap debutantes to note in the betting.

  1. Yaajooz11/2
  2. Wait And Hope9/2
  3. Jolty Jem18/1
