Siegen³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 85| BF

20/1

Off the mark at Sandown (5.1f) in June but proved disappointing on nursery bow at Windsor since and others look better treated.

Form: 5415

Fred On Fire¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: David Probert| T: H Palmer| OR: 84| D

12/1

Made winning start at Newcastle (6f) in June and backed that up with good third in Ayr minor event next time. No impact on handicap debut at Goodwood (7f) 15 days ago but it's still early days.

Form: 130

(6)

Miss El Fundi³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 82| D

13/2

Confirmed previous promise when winning 12-runner novice at Kempton (6f, 5/2) last month and remains open to improvement on handicap debut.

Form: 451

(7)

Spirit Of Leros^p1²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: D Egan| T: M Botti| OR: 82| D

12/1

Left Ascot debut behind when readily winning a 6f Lingfield novice in June. No impact in listed company here latest but better expected on switch to handicapping. Wears first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 518

(10)

Priapos²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 81| D

10/3

Overcame greenness to make a winning debut at Windsor (6f) in June and ran to similar level when fourth of 8 at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last month. Warrants respect on nursery bow.

Form: 14

(1)

Havana Gila¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Hayley Turner| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 80

11/1

Confirmed debut promise when landing a 5f York novice on second start but below that level twice since and makes limited appeal on handicap debut.

Form: 5189

(2)

Meeghat²³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: S Hitchcott| T: R Hannon| OR: 75

16/1

Found some improvement when third of 8 in novice at Salisbury (6f, good to firm, 20/1) 23 days ago and should do better in nurseries but he may already prefer a longer trip.

Form: 783

(3)

Rare Change¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: R L Moore| T: R Hughes| OR: 75| BF

11/4

Found improvement since switched to nurseries, latest when good third of 16 at Goodwood (6f, firm) 14 days ago. Races off same mark here and is one for shortlist.

Form: 06433

(11)

Marrakesh Express^h¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 74

28/1

Improved with each start thus far, latest when second of 7 in novice (9/2) at Windsor (6f, firm) 13 days ago. Looks fairly treated on handicap debut and could be a player.

Form: 842

(9)

Invincible Crown³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: George Rooke| T: R Hughes| OR: 74| BF

16/1

Came close to breaking maiden tag at Windsor last month but well below that level at Chepstow since and needs to bounce back on switch to handicapping. Gelded since last start.

Form: 3323

(4)

Far Above The Law²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 73| D

10/1

Opened account at fourth time of asking when landing 8-runner maiden at Chepstow (6.1f, good to firm) 21 days ago. More demanded on nursery debut here, however.

Form: 4631

(5)

Candy²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: George Wood| T: R Spencer| OR: 70

20/1

Lightly-raced maiden who posted creditable sixth of 9 in nursery at Lingfield (5f, AW) 24 days ago, not clear run. However, this is a deeper contest and others hold more appeal.

Form: 6666

Forecasts

Rare Change (11/4), Priapos (10/3), Miss El Fundi (13/2), Far Above The Law (10/1), Havana Gila (11/1), Spirit Of Leros (12/1), Fred On Fire (12/1), Meeghat (16/1), Invincible Crown (16/1), Candy (20/1), Siegen (20/1), Marrakesh Express (28/1)

Preference is for MISS EL FUNDI, who was a decisive winner at Kempton last month and remains with potential on switch to handicapping. Rare Change and Priapos are feared most.
