Exceed And Excel colt. Dam, German listed winner at 9f, closely related to St James's Palace Stakes winner Zafeen, also runner-up in 2000 Guineas. Showed a bit in a hood on his Kempton debut in early June and is entitled to improve.

Gaiety Musical¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: P D Evans| OR: 78

15/8

Sent off 250/1 but displayed plenty of ability when second of 13 in maiden at Leicester (8.2f, good to soft) on debut. Similar form twice since, including when filling same spot at Chelmsford (7f) 12 days ago. The one to beat.

Form: 272

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Aidan Keeley⁽³⁾| T: H Palmer

9/1

Held back by inexperience (hooded) when eighth of 9 in a C&D novice (good to firm, 40/1) on debut 14 days ago. May do better.

Form: 8

Shop Local¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J Channon

33/1

Bred to be useful but has shown only greenness in a pair of maidens 8 months apart. Possibly more one for handicaps after this.

American Arrow (1/1), Gaiety Musical (15/8), Caffu Zafeen (17/2), Kokinelli (9/1), Gigastar (12/1), Shop Local (33/1)

GAIETY MUSICAL sets a clear standard and has to be considered the one to beat, though a strong market move for the nicely bred newcomer American Arrow would put a slightly different slant on matters. Caffu Zafeen showed a bit of promise on his debut at Kempton in June and could improve.
