Foaled February 14. €120,000 2-y-o, Too Darn Hot colt. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to smart winner up to 6f Sergei Prokofiev. Appeals on paper for excellent stable and he's one to consider on debut.

Foaled April 9. Ardad colt. Dam, 11.5f/1½m winner, also won over hurdles. Very much a mix on breeding and he's likely best watched on debut.

Foaled March 17. Lope De Vega colt. Dam, 6f winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to smart 2-y-o 1m winner (stayed 10.5f) Maximal, out of winning half-sister to Frankel. Yard 2-10 with their juveniles on turf so far this season. Well worthy of respect.

€55,000 2-y-o, Starspangledbanner colt. 22/1, made a bright start under considerate ride (ran green before running on) when fourth of 15 in maiden at Newmarket (6f) on debut 21 days ago. Looks a sure-fire improver with that under his belt and 7f promises to be well within range.

Foaled March 18. Lope De Vega colt. Offered something to work on amid greenness when third of 4 in novice at Doncaster (7f, good to firm, 7/1) on debut 13 days ago. Should improve.

Ulysses colt. Half-brother to French 8.5f winner Dulsie Bridge and 7f winner So Logical. Held back by inexperience when ninth of 13 in novice at this C&D (good to firm) on debut 30 days ago, pushed along halfway and merely passing beaten rivals.

Foaled February 11. Aclaim colt. Dam 6f-7.6f winner. Yard also saddle Fear of The Dark but he's another who is likely best watched on debut.

Foaled April 10. Kingman colt. Closely related to useful 1m winner Chartreuse and 2-y-o 1m winner Bold Reason. Dam French 1m winner (including at 2 yrs). Noteworthy newcomer for leading stable.

Foaled April 1. Wootton Bassett colt. Dam, 10.5f/11f winner, half-sister to smart German winner up to 7f Dabbitse. Worth monitoring in the betting for clues ahead of debut.

Forecasts

Jonquil (11/4), Qetaifan (11/4), Tycoon (3/1), Centigrade (7/2), Time Turner (11/1), Troy Story (28/1), Wootton Palace (40/1), Tequila Star (80/1), Turpin (200/1), Fear Of The Dark (200/1)

Verdict

The betting should prove a useful guide but TYCOON appeals as a likely type on paper representing the John & Thady Gosden stable and is narrowly selected before market clues. Qetaifan was really getting the hang of things late on when fourth on debut at Newmarket and looks a sure-fire improver upped to 7f. Centigrade and Jonquil are another pair of very well-bred newcomers who command respect, with Time Turner also likely to improve on his debut effort.
