Latest win at Navan in June. 50/1, thirteenth of 16 in handicap at Galway (7f, soft) 6 days ago. Back down in trip. Blinkers back on. Others make more appeal.

Enjoying a phenomenal summer, especially at Hamilton, making it 5 wins in a row at the track when seeing off Badri there a week ago. Thriving and is worthy of respect.

Thriving filly who upped her game again to take out a listed contest at Sandown with nothing to spare in June. Another excellent showing when second in the Summer Stakes at York last time and can't be ruled out back in handicap company.

Landed 6f Newmarket handicap at the Guineas meeting but he's not been on his game since, so needs a first-time visor to perk him up.

C&D winner. Latest win at Epsom in June. Sub-par showing when down the field at Goodwood a week ago, so needs to bounce back.

Hit the target on five occasions last year. Mixed record from falling mark in 2024 but made a promising start for this yard when runner-up to Jordan Electrics at Hamilton last time. Definite player.

Useful, dual winner at 2 yrs and returned with an encouraging fourth for new yard in York listed event for new yard in May. Hasn't fired since.

In good form on the AW towards the end of last year and has continued the good work returned to turf this season, gaining reward for a consistent spell when landing a 20-runner event at York 56 days ago. Likely has more to come and looks the one to beat.

Off mark for the season at Redcar in June and back on track to some degree when eigth over C&D last time. Others look better treated, though.

3 wins from 16 runs this year. Latest win at York in July. Last of 5 in handicap (11/10) at Brighton (5.3f, good) 3 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Apollo One (3/1), Holkham Bay (4/1), Adaay In Devon (9/2), Badri (9/2), Desert Cop (5/1), Jordan Electrics (7/1), Dream Composer (10/1), Kylian (12/1), Muker (12/1), Thunderbear (25/1), Night On Earth (33/1)

Verdict

HOLKHAM BAY has had a break since his improved effort to score at York last time and he's a most likeable type, so he's fancied to follow up in this stronger contest. The thriving Jordan Electrics isn't without hope and Badri is another player.
