Sex On Fire¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Hart| T: R Spencer| OR: 85

9/1

Southwell winner on debut in March. Fared about as well as could be expected when 8 lengths fifteenth of 27 to Ain't Nobody in listed Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, firm) 17 days ago. Makes handicap debut and he's ready for 6f.

Form: 130

Shazani¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: Rossa Ryan| T: C Johnston| OR: 84| D

11/1

Took another jump forward when landing 8-runner maiden (17/2) at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago, keeping on well. Makes nursery debut from a fair-enough mark.

Form: 041

Seraphim Angel¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 82

11/2

Confirmed debut promise when scoring at Chester in May. Cheekpieces on for first time, 7½ lengths sixteenth of 24 to Leovanni in Queen Mary Stakes (80/1) at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) 17 days ago. This more realistic up in trip.

Form: 4160

Regal Gem²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 80| D

7/2

Strong in the betting and justified that support on debut at Pontefract in May. Merely matched that form when of 5 under a penalty at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Makes handicap debut and mark asks for more.

Form: 14

Arabian Cobra¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: H Palmer| OR: 78

3/1

Yet to win a race so no surprise he could manage only12½ lengths twenty fifth of 27 to Ain't Nobody in listed Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, firm) 17 days ago. Makes handicap debut and mark is a fair one on his Windsor run.

Form: 6250

(2)

Hofburg¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 75

10/1

Fourth on debut and improved his position by 1 each start, second of 5 in maiden at Chepstow (6.1f, good, 10/3) 19 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Merits consideration.

Form: 432

(7)

Gold Medallist¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Harry Davies| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 75

14/1

Gelded after second start and back on track when third of 7 in maiden at Brighton (6f, good) 18 days ago. Makes handicap debut and mark looks a fair one.

Form: 293

(4)

Rare Change¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 72

5/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 20/1, fourth of 9 in maiden at Goodwood (5f, good) 15 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Makes handicap debut and return to 6f very much in his favour.

Form: 064

Forecasts

Arabian Cobra (3/1), Regal Gem (7/2), Rare Change (5/1), Seraphim Angel (11/2), Sex On Fire (9/1), Hofburg (10/1), Shazani (11/1), Gold Medallist (14/1)

SHAZANI relished 6f when making third start a winning one at Hamilton 3 weeks ago, and with the prospect of more to come, he's taken to continue the good work. Hofburg is going the right way so he's feared, with Arabian Cobra well weighted on the pick of his form.
