5/6

Fairly useful form. A third run inside a fortnight and a drop to 5f offer excuses for his short-priced reversal at Newcastle last time. Sets a decent standard.

Form: 323

Little Jumby

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: William Cox| T: C Hills

22/1

Foaled April 18. €30,000 Kodiac colt. Dam, French 6f-1m winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to useful winner up to 8.5f (US Grade 3 event) Outburst. The betting should help guide to expectations.

12/1

Foaled April 17. 25,000 gns Due Diligence colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful 6f winner Adaay To Remember and 6f winner Destined. Bred to have a future.

Simply Blue²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: P Cosgrave| T: D Loughnane| OR: 83| BF

9/2

Fairly useful form when runner-up at Leicester (5f) and Hamilton (6f) on his last 2 starts. Should go well again.

Form: 722

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: George Downing| T: R A Teal

Avalon

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ross Coakley| T: E Walker

13/2

Foaled February 15. Showcasing filly. Sister to 5f/5.3f winner Mutamanni. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to winner up to 7f Gallagher and winner up to 1¼m Quick Wit (both smart). Yard's 2-y-os going well. A market move for this one would be interesting.

Forecasts

Invited (5/6), Simply Blue (9/2), Avalon (13/2), Gayedhom (9/1), Morte Point (12/1), Little Jumby (22/1), The Hare Rail (25/1), Sassy Sprezzatura (100/1)

INVITED has slightly better form than Simply Blue and can make it fourth time lucky. Ed Walker has had a few 2-y-o winners of late so a market move for his newcomer Avalon would also bring her into the reckoning.
