Ahead Of Fashion³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D J S Ffrench Davis

11/2

Dream Ahead gelding who didn't cost a lot but offered something to work on when seventh of 17 in Brocklesby (20/1) at Doncaster (5f, good) on debut 37 days ago, noted keeping on out wide final 100 yds. May do better.

Form: 7

Amakhala

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: George Bass| T: M D I Usher

80/1

Foaled April 3. 5,500 gns yearling, Mayson colt. Dam 7f-1m winner. Yard wouldn't be renowned for winning newcomers and percentage call to look elsewhere.

Mwaki

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: George Wood| T: R Spencer

8/1

Foaled March 6. £60,000 yearling, Ardad colt. Dam, unraced, closely related to smart 5f/6f winner Priceless, won Temple Stakes. Appeals on paper for a yard who have enjoyed plenty of success with their juveniles and he's one to note.

Private Affair²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| BF

8/15

Soldier's Call colt who is bred for speed and knew his job when second of 11 in maiden at Newbury (5.2f, good, 3/1) on debut 24 days ago, keeping on. Likely to improve and he's on the shortlist.

Form: 2

Red Savitar^t¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Davies| T: H Palmer| BF

11/2

Lope Y Fernandez colt who is bred to be sharp and, fitted with a tongue strap, he showed ability without matching market expectations when third of 5 in novice at Southwell (5f) on debut 15 days ago. Feasible to think he can do better with that under his belt.

Form: 3

Forecasts

Private Affair (8/15), Ahead Of Fashion (11/2), Red Savitar (11/2), Mwaki (8/1), Amakhala (80/1)

PRIVATE AFFAIR is bred to be sharp and went close to making a winning debut when finishing a head second in a Newbury maiden (5.2f) 24 days ago. Open to improvement with that run under his belt, he's fanced to go one place better. Mwaki rates a likely type on debut and he's worthy of note, particularly if strong in the betting. Red Savitar is also considered.
