Betfred Derby 'Wild Card' EBF Conditions Stakes (GBB Race)

Glittering Legend²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe

3/1

Left 7f Doncaster debut behind when winning a 1m Goodwood maiden (good) 10 weeks later, proving well suited by the longer trip. Likely to go on to even better things but conceding weight to Anniversary may prove just beyond him.

Form: 51

Anniversary⁴⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Rob Hornby| T: R M Beckett

11/10

Sea The Moon colt who looked a good prospect when making a winning debut at Newmarket (1m, good) 6 weeks ago. Sure to improve for his in-form leading yard and the one beat.

Form: 1

(2)

Archie's Angel¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Rossa Ryan| T: C G Cox| OR: 84

13/2

Won on 7f Haydock debut in July and stepped up on that form when 5 lengths second of 12 in a 1m Salisbury novice (good to soft) 16 days ago. More will be needed again here.

Form: 12

(4)

The Green Mile¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Marquand| T: S & E Crisford

9/1

Waldgeist colt who made a winning start to his career in a 1m Bath maiden 15 days ago. That wasn't a strong race but he was well on top at the finish and can be expected to improve.

Form: 1

(3)

Too Soon²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: G & J Moore

11/2

Caught the eye when fifth on Glorious Goodwood debut and showed plenty of promise again when third at Ascot 5 weeks later (both 7f). Should prove at least as effective over 1m.

Form: 53

ANNIVERSARY is entered in the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster next month and can set himself up for a possible tilt at that race by following up last month's Newmarket debut success. Glittering Legend can follow him home.
