Anashhad¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian| BF

11/1

Bayraq Almuhamadia

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

6/1

Enricher²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick

66/1

Shown a fair bit in 5f events but this is surely too tough up in trip/class.

Form: 44

High Approval^t1²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: C Soumillon| T: H Al Jehani| BF

15/2

Big-money breeze-up purchase who was well backed and showed ability on debut when third of 11 in a novice at Nottingham. That form worked out well and he ran another promising race at Yarmouth (6f) 4 weeks ago. Tongue tie goes on and one to consider.

Form: 32

(3)

Legacy Rock²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Dr R Newland

40/1

16/1, weakened in 7f Lingfield novice on debut 3 weeks ago and will likely need more time and further.

Form: 5

Naval Light⁴⁰

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

1/1

Expensive breeze-up purchase who shaped very well when 1½ lengths second of 6 in conditions event at Beverley (5f) on debut, but still green in the Norfolk at Royal Ascot a month on. This is easier and he remains capable of better. Leading claims up in trip.

Form: 28

Receding

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: M P Tregoning

80/1

Foaled January 28. 24,000 gns yearling, Showcasing colt. Dam, French 8.5f winner, half-sister to very smart 1½m-15.5f winner Ice Breeze out of useful 11f-13.5f winner Winter Silence.

River Spey²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: K Shoemark| T: E Walker

66/1

Down the field in 6f novice/maiden and looks one for handicaps.

125/1

Foaled January 23. 50,000 gns yearling, Zoustar gelding. Brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Out of The Stars and winner up to 5.5f Stars On Fire and half-brother to 5f winner Natsumi.

Stellar Sunrise⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| BF

6/1

Has shown plenty in 6f events here and at York and can do better as he goes up in trip. Probably vulnerable here.

Form: 23

(7)

Vintage Heat

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Spencer| T: R Hannon

25/1

Foaled March 12. Too Darn Hot colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 7.4f winner Great Havana. Dam 1m/8.5f winner. 1 of 2 newcomers for yard that has enjoyed plenty of success in this valuable maiden.

Warning Symbol¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S D Bowen| T: James Owen

33/1

From a good family for owners and seems sure to learn from his recent debut run at Windsor (6f) when taking keen hold and not knocked about.

Form: 5

Yachtsman²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: J & T Gosden

33/1

Green and well held in Newbury/Haydock novice events. One for handicaps for top connections.

Form: 47

Yorkshire Puds²⁹

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

11/1

£105,000 Mehmas colt out of a winning sprinter and offered plenty to work on without being given an overly hard time in 6f Pontefract novice last month. Should have more to come.

Forecasts

Naval Light (1/1), Stellar Sunrise (6/1), Bayraq Almuhamadia (6/1), High Approval (15/2), Anashhad (11/1), Yorkshire Puds (11/1), Vintage Heat (25/1), Manly Fireball (25/1), Yachtsman (33/1), Warning Symbol (33/1), My Champion (33/1), Legacy Rock (40/1), River Spey (66/1), Enricher (66/1), Receding (80/1), Clipper (100/1), Star Of Albion (125/1)

A large field for this valuable maiden and owners Wathnan might hold the key to it with NAVAL LIGHT given the vote over another of their breeze-up purchases High Approval. Karl Burke's charge couldn't land a blow in the Norfolk but had previously made a really promising start at Beverley when finishing strongly and can surely win races. James Doyle takes the ride over High Approval, who is fitted with a tongue tie after another good run at Yarmouth. Yorkshire Puds is another to consider.
