Vilaine Verlaine²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: N Callan| T: M D I Usher| OR: 63

12/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Very good second of 9 in nursery at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm, 11/1) 21 days ago. Bred to improve for this trip so one of the likelier sorts.

Form: 6582

(7)

Moonlit Stage⁷^{(ex 6)}

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: D Egan| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 57| D

5/2

Confirmed promise of his Wolverhampton run when winning 11-runner nursery at Newcastle (10.2f) 7 days ago by neck from Bebside. Carries penalty, which may make upholding the form tricky.

Form: 44921

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Watson| T: A M Balding| OR: 61

9/2

Fifth of 6 in novice at Epsom (7f, soft, 33/1) 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut for top yard but he does need to raise his game considerably from this mark.

Form: 795

(3)

Corpus Juris^b1⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 60

8/1

Creditable 7 lengths sixth of 11 to Moonlit Stage in nursery (11/2) at Newcastle (10.2f) 7 days ago. Blinkers need to draw out more.

Form: 665436

Bebside^b⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby| OR: 60

11/4

Big step forward when excellent neck second of 11 to Moonlit Stage in nursery at Newcastle (10.2f) 7 days ago, staying on well. Makes polytrack debut. On a lenient mark eased 2 lb.

Form: 634452

33/1

Respectable fifth of 10 in nursery (9/2) at Redcar (8f, good) 15 days ago. Up in trip. Very hard to make a case for.

Forecasts

Moonlit Stage (5/2), Bebside (11/4), Winston's Folly (9/2), Corpus Juris (8/1), Kilpatrick Prince (9/1), Vilaine Verlaine (12/1), Kon'nichiwa (16/1), Coverbridge (22/1), Aleishka (33/1)

BEBSIDE and Moonlit Stage dominated the first 10f nursery of the season at Newcastle a week ago and they are the pair to focus on again. An 8 lb pull in the weights strongly suggests the former will take his revenge this time.
