7/4

Twice-raced colt. 12/1, third of 7 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago, staying on well. That was a step up on debut run and 7f can only help him.

Spirit Of The Wood²⁶

5/2

Promising sort. 11/2, third of 9 in maiden at this C&D (good) on debut 26 days ago, clear of rest. Should progress from that pleasing debut so he's a major player.

Forecasts

Supreme Clarets (7/4), Spirit Of The Wood (5/2), Yorkshire Queen (13/2), Suddenly I See (15/2), Born A Star (8/1), Madame Koko (9/1), Secret Testimony (33/1), Lanarra (200/1)

Having been quite strong in the market, SPIRIT OF THE WOOD showed more than most debutants from his yard when third over C&D 4 weeks ago and with improvement forthcoming, he could be the answer. Supreme Clarets is sure to relish 7f so he's an obvious threat, while market support for Suddenly I See would look significant.
