1/12
Promising Kingman colt came in second of 10 in novice at Thirsk (8f, good) 33 days ago when needing a stronger gallop. Has more to offer and holds outstanding claims of quickly resuming winning ways.

Modest form shown before hampered and unseated rider start in maiden at Pontefract (8f, good) 8 days ago. Needs considering for place purposes.

Forecasts

First Principle (1/12), Ettore (13/2), Tenbob Tommy (20/1), Zucayan (28/1), Grey Selkie (100/1), Signore Enzo (150/1)

Verdict

FIRST PRINCIPLE holds much the best form on show and is impossible to oppose in his bid to make it 2-3. Fergal O'Brien's winning hurdler Zucayan appeals as the one to chase home William Haggas' son of Kingman, ahead of Ettore.

  2. Zucayan28/1
  3. Ettore13/2
