Fuji Mountain²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 83| CD

10/3

Speedy sort who came good back in calmer waters when making all in 8-runner C&D novice (soft) in July. Struggled in group/listed company since but switch to handicaps in his favour and he's proven with plenty of give underfoot.

Form: 720100

Teej A⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: A Elliott| T: K R Burke| OR: 83| C

10/1

Progressive earlier this term, winning 2 of first 3 starts including Woodcote Stakes at Epsom (6f, soft) in May. However, she's taken backward steps subsequently, well held on nursery debut at York 6 days ago. Has good bit to prove at present even allowing for the ease in class.

Pont Neuf²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Georgia Dobie| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 83| D

13/2

Won 5f novices at Kempton (AW) and Salisbury (heavy) on first 2 starts but struggled in better company more recently, seeming to find 6f too far in valuable sales' race at Newmarket 3 weeks ago. Will hold more chance now handicapping.

Form: 11005

Invincible Song^b¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Rob Hornby| T: B J Meehan| OR: 78| D

5/1

Invincible Spirit filly who stepped forward when fourth on handicap debut and first-time blinkers seemed the catalyst for further progress when making all at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 18 days ago, by 1½ lengths from Invincible Annice. Respected up 6 lb.

Havana Gila¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Jim Crowley| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 78| D

11/2

Opened account at York (5f) in June and back to that sort of form of late, third of 7 in nursery at Goodwood (6f, good) 11 days ago, every chance over 1f out and not quicken. Return to the minimum trip in her favour on that evidence.

Jm Jhingree²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Sullivan| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 76| D

14/1

Won a 5f Redcar maiden in May before a good third in Beverley conditions' event. Has found progress stalling more recently though, not looking particularly well treated when sixth of 8 in nursery (15/2) at Beverley (5f, good) 20 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Kodibeat⁹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Sean Kirrane| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 73| D

100/1

Bred to be a speedy 2-y-o and proved just that when making a winning debut at Kempton (5f) in April. Far from disgraced in finishing midfield in novice company thereafter and switch to nurseries in her favour having joined new yard for 12,000 gns in July.

Form: 154

Invincible Annice¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: K R Burke| OR: 72| D

5/2

Ran well when chasing home Invincible Song at Ripon on penultimate start and confirmed as much when going one place better in 5-runner Hamilton novice (5f, soft) 10 days ago, leading over 2f out and always holding on. Appeals as the type who can go on again back in nurseries.

Form: 180421

Ardennes²¹

Weight: 9-9| Age: 2

T: E Walker J: O J Orr

Forecasts

Invincible Annice (5/2), Fuji Mountain (10/3), Invincible Song (5/1), Havana Gila (11/2), Ardennes (6/1), Pont Neuf (13/2), Teej A (10/1), Jm Jhingree (14/1), Kodibeat (100/1)

This looks competitive but INVINCIBLE ANNICE confirmed the promise of her previous two starts when resuming winning ways at Hamilton 10 days ago and she appeals as the type to make her mark again returned to nursery company. Ardennes, Ripon-scorer Invincible Song and Fuji Mountain, returned to calmer waters, are others to consider.
