Explosion⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: S De Sousa| T: C Johnston| BF

3/1

Third in a pair of outings over 7f, on both occasions leaving the impression this step up to 1m will suit. Should go well.

Form: 33

Lavender Gold³⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Oisin Murphy| T: D Menuisier

5/2

9/2, needed experience when seventh of 16 in novice at York (7f, good) on debut 38 days ago, making late headway under considerate handling. Looks sure to progress.

Glenna¹⁹

25/1

18/1, offered something to work on when 6 lengths fourth of 9 in novice at Kempton (7f) on debut 19 days ago. Open to improvement with 1m likely to suit.

Forecasts

Lavender Gold (5/2), Titanck (5/2), Explosion (3/1), Arbaawy (15/2), Baltic Fleet (9/1), The Wicked Wolf (22/1), Glenna (25/1), Any Which Way (28/1), Sports Day (40/1), Runswick (80/1)

TITANCK has shown promise on both starts and is narrowly preferred to Explosion, who looks sure to benefit from the step up to 1m. Oisin Murphy's mount Lavender Gold showed promise amidst greenness on his York debut in July and should also have a part to play, while George Boughey newcomer Baltic Fleet would enter the reckoning if the betting speaks in his favour.
