10/1
Foaled March 10. Showcasing gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including 7f-1m winner Western Writer, 1m winner Mountain Song and 7f/1m winner Echo Point, all useful. One to note in the betting.

Foaled March 29. £8,000 yearling, Cotai Glory gelding. Yard rarely strikes with newcomers and this one is opposable on debut.

Promising type. Second of 9 in novice at Kempton (7f, 11/4) 37 days ago, staying on well. Likely to make a bold bid to go one better here.

Once-raced colt. Eighth of 12 in novice (50/1) at Kempton (7f) on debut 11 days ago. Probably more one for middle distance handicaps next year.

2/1
Twice-raced gelding. 4/1, seventh of 9 in novice at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) when last seen in August. Gelded since and remains of interest given promise of his debut second at Pontefract.

Once-raced colt. Sixth of 14 in novice (10/3) at this C&D on debut 16 days ago. Should progress with the run under his belt.

Horse silk
6/1
Foaled February 19. Oasis Dream gelding. Closely related to useful winner up to 7f Whispering Dream and half-brother to winner up to 1m Wild Goddess. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner. Slight concern that he sports a hood on debut, but claims on paper are otherwise very compelling.

Forecasts

Media Legend (15/8), Sanaam (2/1), Space Invasion (10/3), Wild Act (6/1), Alpine Culture (10/1), Mountbatten (66/1), Elusive Glory (80/1), Worlington (200/1)

Verdict

MEDIA LEGEND took a step forward when second at Kempton last month and, with the promise of better to come, he gets the nod ahead of likely-looking newcomer Wild Act. Naturally, confidence behind the latter in the betting would look significant given his connections and he is greatly respected. Space Invasion should build on his C&D debut run and Sanaam is not one to give up on, while Alpine Culture is another newcomer to note.
