80,000 gns yearling, Dark Angel colt. Dam, 6f winner, sister to very smart 7f-8.3f winner Penitent and useful 2-y-o 5f-6f winner Supplicant. 14/1, edged out a good prospect when winning 8-runner novice at Southwell (8.1f) on debut 14 days ago. Open to progress.

1/3
Frankel colt. Half-brother to high-class 7f-1¼m winner Benbatl, smart 1¼m-1½m winner Modaara, and 1000 Guineas winner Elmalka. Looked a good prospect when making a winning debut in novice at Yarmouth in October. Too green in listed race at Newmarket on return and worth another chance.

Sallaal (1/3), Arctic Grey (9/2), College Fund (15/2), Obito (22/1), Capla Daviekins (125/1)

Verdict

SALLAAL looked one to follow when winning on debut at Yarmouth in the autumn so is worth another chance having pulled too hard in a listed race at Newmarket on return. Fellow penalised winner Arctic Grey edged out a useful sort at Southwell on debut 2 weeks ago so rates the main threat.
