Twin Earth²³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: L Morris| T: A Watson

11/2

Left Flat debut form behind when fourth of 13 in maiden (50/1) at Leicester (8.2f, good to soft) 23 days ago and must enter calculations.

Form: 64

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: S H James| T: K Scott

200/1

Eleventh of 12 in maiden at Carlisle (9f, soft, 250/1) on Flat debut 10 days ago, very slowly away. Hard to fancy.

Form: 0

(6)

Royal College

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: A Mullen| T: C Johnston

17/2

€75,000 yearling, Wootton Bassett colt. Half-brother to several winners, including useful 10.5f winner Lucky Look and winner up to 1m Millfield, both in France. Interesting newcomer.

Form:

Royal Duke¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: P Mulrennan| T: R M Smith

150/1

Once-raced gelding. 200/1, seventh of 10 in maiden at Musselburgh (8f, good to firm) on debut 14 days ago. Likely to need more time.

Form: 7

Thomas G²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: O J Orr| T: T D Barron

25/1

Once-raced gelding. Seventh of 9 in maiden at Thirsk (8f, good to firm, 28/1) on debut 20 days ago. Looks one for handicaps down the line.

Form: 7

Wafei⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: James Doyle| T: W J Haggas| OR: 83| BF

1/5

Returned with disappointing fourth of 8 in maiden at Windsor (10f, good to soft, 4/7) 59 days ago but very much sets the standard on last year's form. Gelded since last outing.

Form: 25-4

(1)

Pennymuir

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Amie Waugh⁽⁵⁾| T: H Graham & G Rutherford

80/1

Berkshire filly. Dam, 10.7f winner, also won over hurdles. Likely a longer-term project.

Form:

Forecasts

Wafei (1/5), Twin Earth (11/2), Royal College (17/2), Thomas G (25/1), Pennymuir (80/1), Royal Duke (150/1), Crafty Dancer (200/1)

WAFEI will likely start at prohibitive odds but can put his disappointing Windsor return behind him. Twin Earth is the obvious danger on form, whilst Charlie Johnston's newcomer Royal College is worth monitoring in the market.
