Held back by inexperience when remote third on debut and much improved when second of 9 at Kempton (1½m) last month. Likely capable of better again and should prove hard to beat switched to turf.

Age: 3|  Weight: 9-7| J: P Mulrennan| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR:  71
Fair form. Respectable fourth of 6 in nursery at Doncaster (1m, good, 10/3) when last seen in September. Appeals as one who will be suited by middle distances this year.

Lightly-raced colt. Behind the reopposing Flickering Halo when last of 5 in handicap (4/1) at Southwell (11f) 32 days ago. Still early days for his good stable but he needs improvement here.

Tryfan193

10/1, offered plenty to work amidst greenness when third of 5 in novice at Newcastle (1¼m) on debut in September, keeping on after slow start. Should do better.

11/1, fifth of 10 in maiden at Chelmsford (7f) on debut in November. Significantly up in trip. Open to progress but needs to leave the debut form well behind.

Forecasts

Clockwatcher (6/4), Flickering Halo (9/2), Torrent (5/1), Tryfan (6/1), Monsieur Melee (6/1), Kingmont (10/1)

Verdict

CLOCKWATCHER sets a decent standard on his Kempton second and will take plenty of stopping if as effective on turf. There was plenty to like about Tryfan's opening run at Newcastle last autumn and he's second choice ahead of Monsieur Melee.
