Hornsea Bay²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| CD

8/11

5/1, looked a good prospect when winning 11-runner novice at this C&D (good to firm) on debut 3 weeks ago by 3 lengths from reopposing Bambalam. Carries a penalty and looks sure to progress and win more races.

Form: 1

Bambalam²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| BF

10/3

10/11, confirmed debut promise given a much more positive ride when 3 lengths second of 11 to reopposing Hornsea Bay in novice at this C&D (good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Remains with potential.

Form: 72

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Archie Young⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell

250/1

16/1, tailed-off last of 7 in maiden at Hamilton (8.3f, good) on debut 18 days ago, very slowly away.

100/1

12/1, fourth of 7 in maiden at Hamilton (8.3f, good) on debut 18 days ago, not knocked about. Will likely be of most interest when handicapping.

Form: 4

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| BF

3/1

13/8, showed promise when second of 6 in novice at Redcar (7f, good) on debut 15 days ago, no match for winner who raced alone on far rail. Should progress.

Form: 2

Forecasts

Hornsea Bay (8/11), Last Galileo (3/1), Bambalam (10/3), Ridgemaster (25/1), Gaelic Gladiator (100/1), Uncle Liam (250/1), Finding Time (250/1)

HORNSEA BAY looked a good prospect when making a winning debut over C&D 3 weeks ago and under a penalty, David O'Meara's colt can confirm his superiority over Bambalam, who was given a much more positive ride that day and duly left his debut effort behind. Last Galileo should come on for his second at Redcar recently, so he rounds off the shortlist.
