4/1

Some encouragement despite finishing last on debut and improved from that run when third of 12 in novice at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) in June. Respected with the potential of further progress to come.

8/11

Made the frame first 2 starts, before finishing third in his group when eighth of 27 in Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot. Ran well when sixth of 9 in listed race at Newbury (6f, good to firm) last month and he's a major player back in a novice.

40/1

Fared little better than on debut when sixth of 7 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good) 45 days ago, leading until halfway before again failing to see his race out. Has work to do.

Better for the experience when sixth of 8 in novice at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) on debut 23 days ago, weakening when ran green approaching final 1f. Much more required, though.

Looked badly in need of the experience when well-beaten eleventh of 12 in newcomers race at this C&D (good, 25/1) a week ago. Likely to need more time.

Calyxoh (8/11), Cairdeas (4/1), Made The Cut (15/2), Reporter (10/1), Kisskodi (16/1), Light Crusader (16/1), Flying Fortress (40/1), Corpus Juris (40/1)

CALYXOH confirmed the improvement he had shown in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot when sixth of 9 in a Newbury listed race last time, so he could be ready to get off the mark as he drops back down in grade. Cairdeas took a step forward from his debut when third at Salisbury and is feared most, with Made The Cut the pick of the newcomers.
