20/1

Foaled February 23. Universal colt. Brother to 1½m winner Minhad. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner out of useful winner up to 1m (2-y-o 5f/6f winner) Dingle View. Looks a longer term prospect on paper.

Commander's Intent¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: D Egan| T: George Scott

85/40

Foaled February 7. €420,000 yearling, Victor Ludorum colt. Very green when eleventh of 18 in maiden at Newbury (6f, firm, 16/1) on debut 13 days ago. Ought to learn plenty and is surely capable of better.

Man Of Vision

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Tom Marquand| T: C Appleby

6/4

Foaled April 3. Dubawi colt. Dam, winner up to 9f (2-y-o 6f winner), half-sister to smart 5f-1m winner Rizeena, won Coronation Stakes. Outstamding pedigree and makes plenty of appeal for leading connections.

On The Inlet

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Dr R Newland

6/1

Foaled May 10. 160,000 gns yearling, New Bay colt. Brother to smart winner up to 7f Jumby and 2-y-o 6f winner Guns Firing and half-brother to several winners, including useful 6f-1m winner Conflict. Plenty to like on paper.

Rodeo

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden

9/2

Foaled April 19. St Mark's Basilica colt. Half-brother to 2 winners, including useful 7f winner American Arrow. Another with an appealing pedigree and represents a top yard, so has to be respected on debut.

Velocity Vow

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: A Watson

28/1

Foaled February 4. 140,000 gns yearling, Camelot colt. Dam 10.5f winner. Yard can ready a newcomer and he's also difficult to rule out on paper.

Forecasts

Man Of Vision (6/4), Commander's Intent (85/40), Rodeo (9/2), On The Inlet (6/1), Brave Hunter (20/1), Velocity Vow (28/1)

This should prove an informative contest with plenty of well-bred newcomers, though MAN OF VISION is perhaps the most appealing for the in-form Charlie Appleby yard, being by Dubawi out a multiple Group-winning mare. On The Inlet is a full brother to Group 2 winner Jumby and also makes appeal for the Newland & Insole team, whilst Rodeo's half-sister made a winning debut last year for the same owners and is another likely player for John & Thady Gosden.
