Gelding has progressed with every run. Likely bumped into one when second of 14 in a novice event at Chelmsford City (10f) 36 days ago, made most, kicked off home turn but no match for winner late on. No surprise to see similar tactics here and should make a bold bid for in-form trainer.

Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1m Sound Advice (2-y-o 7f winner, by Echo of Light) and 1m-1¼m winner Home Before Dusk (by Medicean). Gelded and wears a hood for his belated racecourse debut. Best to look elsewhere.

Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 5 in novice at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 50/1) in November, left behind over 2f out. Needs more.

Timeform
Half-sister to several winners, including 1m/8.3f winner Al Nafoorah (by Bated Breath) and Hallalulu, winner up to 9.5f. Plenty of stamina on the dam's side but likely to need the experience.

Gleneagles Filly. Sister to smart winner up to 1½m Stay Alert and interesting to see if any market support comes her way on racecourse bow. Wears a tongue-tie.

100,000 gns yearling, Saxon Warrior colt. Unable to build on promise of debut when beaten (evens) at Southwell (8f) 50 days ago, hung left and kept on into third. Step up in trip looks the way to go and that could bring out more improvement in this lightly-raced individual from yard who are flying.

Sea The Stars gelding. Half-brother to smart 1¼m/11f winner Marching Army and useful 1m winner Glittering Lights. Caught the eye on debut, getting the hang of things as the race wore on finishing fifth (met trouble) in a Kempton maiden (11f). Bound to benefit from that experience and leading chance.

Churchill filly. Half-sister to 1m winner Yaajooz. Dam unraced out of useful 2-y-o 6f winner Cherokee. Tough ask taking on colts with experience on racecourse debut.

Forecasts

Pride Of Donegal (9/4), Plage De Havre (5/2), Tribal Act (4/1), Romance In Rome (7/1), Sawgrass (8/1), Ruby Kendyl (20/1), Skimming Along (20/1), Star Of Jupiter (25/1), Formal Address (33/1)

Verdict

PLAGE DE HAVRE did little wrong in defeat when second at Chelmsford last month, seemingly bumping into a useful one. He can make his experience count over the promising Tribal Act who was still learning on the job on debut. Pride of Donegal can claim bronze on his first try at this trip.
