15/2

Redcar maiden winner who, back in calmer waters, landed the odds at Catterick in July. 9/1, 1½ lengths sixth of 7 to Valasara in listed race at Deauville (5f, good) 15 days ago. Makes nursery debut from a fair-looking mark.

Form: 1016

15/8

Winning debut at Catterick in May. 33/1, very good third of 19 in Super Sprint at Newbury (5.2f, good) 36 days ago, finishing race off well. Should be a factor on nursery debut.

Form: 1033

Ambishio³⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: K Stott| T: M Appleby| OR: 79

7/1

Runner-up in a C&D maiden who was pitched in deep and could manage only fifteenth of 19 in Super Sprint (33/1) at Newbury (5.2f, good) 36 days ago. Bounce back required switched to a nursery.

Form: 420

2/1

Put experience to good use when making fourth start a winning one at Pontefract in July. 14/1, very good third of 19 in nursery at York (6f, good) 4 days ago. Major claims from the same mark.

Form: 22313

Elara May¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Connor Planas⁽³⁾| T: P J McBride| OR: 76| D

12/1

Improved form when making a successful nursery debut at Yarmouth last month. Followed up in 5-runner nursery at Chepstow (5.1f, good, 8/13) 10 days ago, readily. Not taken lightly despite another 6 lb rise.

Form: 53311

Valor Spirit¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Cam Hardie| T: R A Fahey| OR: 72| BF

28/1

Lightly-raced maiden who improved again when third of 5 in nursery at Carlisle (5.8f, good) 12 days ago. Drop back to a bare 5f may not be ideal, though.

Form: 3323

U Turn²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 72| CD

12/1

Evens, career best when winning 8-runner maiden at this C&D (good to firm) 26 days ago. Has had plenty of racing but looks all speed and current mark is a fair one.

Forecasts

Gaga Mate (15/8), Chairmanfourtimes (2/1), Ambishio (7/1), Miss Yechance (15/2), Dandy Style (10/1), Elara May (12/1), U Turn (12/1), Artista (14/1), Valor Spirit (28/1)

Quite a few to consider but CHAIRMANFOURTIMES improved again when third in a stronger nursery than this at York on Wednesday and from the same mark, he looks to have plenty in his favour. U Turn made all over C&D last time and he could take some pegging back, with Gaga Mate also of firm interest after his cracking effort in the Super Sprint.
