Big Song¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: O J Orr| T: Harry Charlton| OR: 89| D

17/2

Proved much sharper second time up when landing a 5-runner maiden at Epsom and quickly resumed progress when making a winning nursery debut at Newmarket 2 weeks ago by 3¼ lengths from Gold Dawn, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Drop back to 7f is a slight concern.

Form: 4151

Malachy's Wish¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: William Carver| T: J A Osborne| OR: 86| D

16/1

Plenty of quality in his pedigree and left debut behind to win maiden at Ffos Las (7.4f, heavy, 4/1). Improved again to defy a penalty at Newcastle 2 weeks ago and he could be useful.

Form: 511

Advertised⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 82| D

50/1

Set a slow pace when making all in nursery at Newcastle last week but faces a different type of test here.

Form: 2101

Daydreama²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby| OR: 83

50/1

Improved to win 6f novice wins at Pontefract and Carlisle (both good to soft). However, ran the first stinker of his career in nursery at Doncaster last month and others preferred.

Form: 31178

Ghost Mode^h²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P J McDonald| T: A M Balding| OR: 88| D

7/4

Ghaiyyath colt who quickly resumed progress when off the mark in 9-runner maiden at Chester (7f, good) 27 days ago by 5½ lengths from Advance Twentyfive. Big shout on these terms.

Form: 3321

Advance Twentyfive¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 84

9/2

Fairly useful maiden who ran as well as could be expected when ninth of 30 in similar event (66/1) at the Curragh 2 weeks ago. Likely to find a few too strong once again.

Form: 734429

(15)

Astrazar¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: P Mulrennan| T: E Walker| OR: 84| D

9/2

Put experience to good use when off the mark at the sixth attempt in Ffos Las maiden 12 days ago. Unlikely to be far away though others have more potential.

Form: 724241

Born A Star⁴⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Connor Beasley| T: C Johnston| OR: 77| D

80/1

Progressing well, off the mark in 8-runner maiden (8/1) at Musselburgh 6 weeks ago but needs another marked step forward if he's to follow up here.

Form: 041

(5)

Real American⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Shane Gray| T: K R Burke| D

11/2

€130,000 foal. Ten Sovereigns colt. Half-brother to smart 6f winner Marshman. Justified short odds despite being very green first time out at Catterick 9 days ago, very cosily by the finish. Can leave that bare form well behind.

Form: 1

Going Commando²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: J F Egan| T: A Keatley| OR: 68

100/1

Exposed maiden who is out of his depth.

Sagremor³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: S De Sousa| T: D Menuisier| BF

50/1

Showed a bit in similar race at Deauville on debut but couldn't last out under very testing conditions at Ffos Las since. Up against it.

Form: 93

(10)

Deluded²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: D Tudhope| T: C Fellowes| OR: 74| D

28/1

Landed the odds with more in hand than the margin suggests at Wolverhampton 3 weeks ago. Remains with potential but this looks a tough ask.

Form: 201

(12)

Gold Dawn^b1¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: A Mullen| T: H Palmer| OR: 77

25/1

Consistent rather than progressive maiden. Change of headgear needs to spark improvement.

Form: 295522

(4)

Red Spells Danger²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 81

14/1

Cotai Glory colt who shaped well first 2 starts here. Might have found ground too soft at Ayr since and he remains with potential.

Form: 363

Forecasts

Ghost Mode (7/4), Astrazar (9/2), Advance Twentyfive (9/2), Real American (11/2), Big Song (17/2), Magic Stone (12/1), Red Spells Danger (14/1), Malachy's Wish (16/1), Gold Dawn (25/1), Deluded (28/1), Daydreama (50/1), Advertised (50/1), Sagremor (50/1), Born A Star (80/1), Going Commando (100/1)

GHOST MODE clocked a good time when making all in a Chester maiden last month and looks the one to beat on these terms. Real American was very green at Catterick but still proved a class apart and looks open to significant improvement. The progressive Malachy's Wish completes the shortlist.
