Lattaash¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Sam Feilden⁽⁷⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 84| C

15/8

Promising type who made a winning start here (7f) last month and improved on that form when third of 10 in novice (13/2) at Newcastle (8f) 16 days ago. Should be more to come yet.

Form: 13

(3)

150/1

Twice-raced maiden. Tenth of 12 in maiden at Newcastle (7.1f, 200/1) 9 days ago. Improvement required.

Form: 60

Baraq¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 79

4/1

Fairly-useful colt who got back on track when good second of 10 in novice at Newcastle (8f) 16 days ago. Holds solid claims on that form.

Form: 63-2382

10/3

Once-raced maiden. 18/1, fourth of 10 in novice at Kempton (8f) on debut 50 days ago, not knocked about. Should improve.

Sword^p⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 85| BF

2/1

500,000 gns Kingman colt who produced his best effort yet, equipped with cheekpieces, when close second in novice at Newmarket (8f) in July. Disappointed in first-time blinkers at Kempton latest but they have been discarded here and he has been gelded since. The one to beat.

Form: 4-3726

(9)

Endless Whisper

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby

50/1

1,500 gns 3-y-o, Teofilo filly. Dam twice-raced half-sister to smart winner up to 11.5f Cassydora out of smart winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 1m winner) (should have stayed 1½m) Claxon.

200/1

Once-raced maiden. Last of 5 in novice at Lingfield (8f, AW, 20/1) on debut 12 days ago. Likely to need more time.

Form: 5

Vanikoro^h⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Cam Hardie| T: K Frost

200/1

Once-raced maiden. Hooded, seventh of 8 in novice at Redcar (6f, good to firm, 80/1) on debut 9 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Hard to recommend.

Forecasts

Lattaash (15/8), Sword (2/1), Ombrecell (10/3), Baraq (4/1), Vibrato (13/2), Endless Whisper (50/1), Arc Tesoro (150/1), Baroque Pearl (200/1), Vanikoro (200/1)

SWORD has cheekpieces refitted after disappointing at Kempton last time and is taken to open his account here. Baraq and Lattaash look the obvious dangers.
