150/1

Sea The Moon gelding. 80/1, still green when tenth of 11 in maiden at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) 9 days ago, slowly away. Clearly one for the longer term.

200/1

Ribchester colt. Very green when last of 7 in maiden at Lingfield (6f, AW) on debut 23 days ago. Can't be fancied on that evidence.

Prince Of Joy³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: George Downing| T: Eve Johnson Houghton

100/1

Oasis Dream gelding made an unpromising start to career when last of 7 in maiden at Goodwood (8f, good to soft) on debut 34 days ago.

Form: 7

Shamador¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson

5/6

Shaman colt. Came clear with an experienced rival when second of 12 in maiden at Newcastle (7.1f) on debut 18 days ago. Sets the standard on that effort and further improvement looks like.

Form: 2

Metro Dubai^b⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Ross Coakley| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 74| BF

5/2

Elarqam gelding. Blinkered for 1st time, good second of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 11/5) 7 days ago. More exposed than most here but he brings some of the better form to the table.

Form: 29532

150/1

Postponed colt. 66/1, tenth of 11 in novice at Leicester (7f, soft) on debut 18 days ago. Needs to leave that effort well behind.

10/1

Foaled March 24. 19,000 gns yearling, resold 30,000 gns yearling, Mohaather filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful 1m-1¼m winner Savaanah and 6f winner Tundra. Dam unraced from a very good family. Makes some appeal on paper and is worth betting check.

Mandana³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 73| BF

9/2

Persian KIng filly. Matched her previous form when third of 5 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good) last month. High draw is a slight negative but she can't be ruled out on form.

Form: 323

The Thames Lady^h¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes

25/1

Land Force filly. Already hooded and raced freely when sixth of 12 in maiden (13/2) at Lingfield (6f, AW) on debut 18 days ago. Will need to improve.

Forecasts

Shamador (5/6), Metro Dubai (5/2), Mandana (9/2), Bint Mohaather (10/1), Pickering Castle (25/1), The Thames Lady (25/1), Summer Evening (33/1), Prince Of Joy (100/1), Appleblossomwhite (100/1), My Boy Harry (100/1), Something Splendid (150/1), Captain Brett (150/1), Chester Arms (200/1), Addenda (250/1)

SHAMADOR showed plenty to like when runner-up at Newcastle on his debut and should know even more this time, so is a strong selection to go one better on this occasion. Metro Dubai and Mandana haven't proven particuarly progressive to date but have at least shown at fair level of ability and are likely to prove the biggest threats.
