Once-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in maiden (28/1) at Nottingham (8.3f, soft) on debut 29 days ago, finishing with running left. Should improve with that run under his belt.

Once-raced maiden. Fifth of 10 in novice (4/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on debut 19 days ago. That experience won't be wasted on him and he's in good hands.

Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in novice at Haydock (8f, good to soft, 50/1) on debut 41 days ago. Readily passed over.

€80,000 yearling, closely related to useful French 7f (including at 2 yrs) winner Royal Shake and half-brother to 2 further winners in France. Yard seldome strikes with newcomers, but this one does need a second look in the betting given his pedigree/price tag.

Forecasts

Eddaari (7/4), Mythical Bay (2/1), Director's Cut (7/1), Del Corso (15/2), Shoof Baeed (10/1), Turtle Reef (12/1), Joyful Lawyer (12/1), According To Mark (16/1), Sheikhnshah (22/1), Sottsfield (80/1), Royal Sizzler (80/1), Palazzo Ducale (125/1), Ideal Quest (300/1)

Verdict

EDDAARI will probably come into his own over middle distance next season, but there has been sufficient promise in his two starts in recent months, particularly when third at Nottingham last time, to suggest that a race of this nature will be within his grasp. There are several interesting newcomers to consider, with Shoof Baeed next on the list ahead of Joyful Lawyer, while the likes of Del Corso, Director's Cut and Turtle Reef are all open to improvement.
