King Casper²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Hart| T: H Palmer| C

9/4

Built significantly on debut promise to run out a clear-cut winner of 11-runner novice at this course (7f, firm) 27 days ago. Can go on improving and much respected under a penalty.

Form: 51

Aegean Sea⁶²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: K Shoemark| T: J & T Gosden

5/2

Kingman colt who made a promising start to his career when third of 12 in a Sandown novice in June, nearest at the finish. Shade disappointing he couldn't build on that back there the following month but it's still early days and he's an obvious player on form upped in trip.

Form: 35

Blue Tempus

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A King

33/1

Foaled February 24. €12,000 yearling, 50,000 gns 2-y-o, Highland Reel colt. Closely related to winner up to 11f Johnny Double. Dam, 8.3f-1¼m winner, half-sister to useful 1m-1¾m winner (stays 16.5f) Eagle Court. Bred for longer trips.

Silver Peak¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby

11/8

€1,250,000Y Dubawi colt. Half-brother to French 8.2f winner So Spirit. Sent off 11/4 and held back by inexperience when fourth of 12 in a 7f novice at Kempton 15 days ago, clear of rest. Sure to do better.

Sir Dinadan⁴⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: R M Beckett

16/1

200,000 gns yearling, Camelot colt. Dam, 2-y-o 7f winner, half-sister to useful 2-y-o 4.5f-6f winner Zinziberine. Ran to just a modest level in a 7f Newbury novice on debut 48 days ago but is clearly thought capable of better.

SILVER PEAK, a 7-figure buy, was held back by inexperience on his debut at Kempton just over a fortnight ago but still pulled clear of the rest and seems sure to do better, so he's taken to make his second start a winning one. King Casper impressed when scoring here last month and is highly respected under a penalty, while Aegean Sea could yet build on his promising debut.
