Kingman colt. Brother to smart 1m/8.6f winner Tempus and half-brother to high-class winner up to 10.4f Time Test (2-y-o 7f winner, by Dubawi), from a fantastic Juddmonte family. Impressive when scoring with plenty in hand on debut at Sandown (7f, well-backed 5/2) in September and sure to improve.

€95,000 yearling, Kameko colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful winner up to 1m Villanova Queen and ungenuine winner up to 7f Vedute. Belated debut but makes plenty of appeal on paper.

Well backed and showed plenty to work on at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut behind promising Clive Cox-trained winner (shaped really well again here since). Easy to back and bit disappointing when fifth of 11 in novice at Doncaster (7f, good, 5/1) 10 days ago.

Dubawi colt. Half-brother to 1½m winner Campaign Medal. Well-bred newcomer to keep an eye on.

250,000 gns yearling. By Kingman out of an unraced half-sister to very smart winner up to 1¼m Headman and smart winner up to 8.5f Projected (2-y-o 6.5f/7f winner). Wears tongue strap. Already gelded but makes plenty of appeal on paper.

Dubawi filly. Half-sister to 1½m winner Night Breeze. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to very smart winner up to 2m (stayed 2½m) Cross Counter. Didn't achieve much at 2 yrs and sold from Charlie Appleby for just 4,000 gns in January. Young apprentice up and best watched.

Forecasts

Cosmic Year (2/9), Honved (5/1), National Park (6/1), Hit Squad (14/1), Roaring Twenties (16/1), Ashen (50/1), Cardinal Point (80/1), Inca Trail (125/1), Maury (150/1), Environment (200/1), An Fear Beag (250/1), Mister Sandman (250/1), Luzon Prince (250/1)

Verdict

COSMIC YEAR has been well backed for the 2000 Guineas and this looks a cracking opportunity for him to make it 2-2 before his sights are aimed at Newmarket. From a fantastic Juddmonte family, he was impressive when making a winning start at Sandown in September and could take high rank among the 3-y-os. Hit Squad, National Park and Roaring Twenties are appealing newcomers from leading yards.
