Kodigara¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine

15/2

Kodi Bear colt who ran to just a poor level when fourth of 7 in novice at this C&D (good) on debut 19 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Probably one for later on.

Form: 4

Moretons¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Shepherd| T: George Scott| BF

2/1

100,000 gns yearling, Cotai Glory colt who was well backed and offered something to work on amidst obvious greenness when third of 6 in maiden at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm) on debut 10 days ago. Looks sure to improve and expected to be in the thick of things.

Form: 3

Meelaf¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S H James| T: K R Burke

4/7

105,000 gns yearling, Iffraaj filly who showed ability despite looking in need of the experience when sixth of 7 in class 2 maiden at Newmarket (5f, good to soft) on debut 17 days ago. Represents powerful stable boasting a fine record with their juveniles and big shout with progress on the cards.

Form: 6

Forecasts

Meelaf (4/7), Moretons (2/1), Kodigara (15/2)

MEELAF needed the experience but still showed ability when sixth in a stronger maiden on debut at Newmarket 17 days ago. She can take a step forward and come out on top, with Moretons who similarly showed promise when third at Yarmouth, rating the chief danger.
