200/1

Twice-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, first run since leaving Hugo Palmer when last of 6 in maiden (80/1) at Haydock (8f, heavy) 23 days ago, very slowly away. Readily passed over.

Paborus¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: E Bethell| D

1/1

Promising type. 9/4, won 12-runner minor event at Redcar (7f, soft) 18 days ago. That form was given a boost when the third won next time and he's a big player with further progress on the cards.

Form: 4-1

Secret World²¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| D

16/5

Promising type. Won 12-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 9/1) when last seen in October. Further improvement likely and she's high on the shortlist.

Form: 21-

Adaay With Michael²⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby

200/1

Twice-raced maiden. 66/1, last of 8 in maiden at Catterick (5f, good). Off 8 months and significantly up in trip.

Form: 58-

(6)

Bellasio²⁰²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: Grant Tuer| BF

10/1

Twice-raced maiden. 7/4, third of 9 in maiden at Newcastle (6f). Off 6 months and will need to raise his game now switched to turf.

Form: 23-

(11)

Financer²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby

50/1

Twice-raced maiden. 12/1, third of 5 in minor event at Ripon (9.8f, heavy) 23 days ago, slowly away. Down in trip and he's probably more one for handicaps in due course. Yard also saddles Beguiling.

Form: 5-3

(8)

Highland Olly

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Harrison Shaw| T: Grant Tuer

100/1

12,000 gns foal, 20,000 gns yearling, Cable Bay gelding. Half-brother to 2-y-o 5.5f winner Paper Star and 6f winner Amber Dew. Dam winner up to 8.3f (2-y-o 7f winner) who stayed 10.5f. Yard rarely strikes with newcomers.

Jonny Concrete¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 72

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, soft, 16/1) 19 days ago. Looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Form: 280-4

(9)

Operate¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Joshua Bryan| T: A Watson| OR: 80

4/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Second of 3 in maiden at Pontefract (8f, soft, 5/4) 19 days ago, having run of race. Solid each-way chance.

Form: 4322

Beguiling¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby

33/1

Twice-raced maiden. 12/1, fourth of 10 in maiden at Thirsk (7f, soft) 16 days ago, nearest finish. Like stablemate Financer, she can be expected to improve when venturing down the handicap route.

Form: 6-4

(1)

Dandiva¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr

150/1

Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in maiden at Thirsk (7f, soft, 66/1) 16 days ago. Looks set for another struggle.

Forecasts

Paborus (1/1), Secret World (16/5), Operate (4/1), Bellasio (10/1), Jonny Concrete (14/1), Beguiling (33/1), Jimmybegood (33/1), Financer (50/1), Highland Olly (100/1), Dandiva (150/1), Capitano (200/1), Adaay With Michael (200/1)

The two with the most appealing profiles are PABORUS and Secret World, both of whom stepped up on their debuts when winning last time and are open to improvement. The former did the job well at Redcar recently and, provided the forecast fast ground doesn't count against him, he could prove too strong for Charlie Johnston's charge. Operate is best of the rest.
