22/1
St Mark's Basilica colt who showed a bit more than on debut when sixth of 10 in novice at Kempton (8f, 22/1) 14 days ago, not knocked about. Likely handicaps will be more his bag after this.

Sergei Prokofiev gelding. 50/1, offered little when eleventh of 12 in novice at this course (7f, AW) on debut 9 days ago, slowly into stride and always behind. Best watched for the time being.

9/4
Victor Ludorum colt who was below the form of his first 2 starts when third of 10 in novice at Kempton (8f, 2/5) 14 days ago, having run of race. Cheekpieces on 1st time and worth another chance to get back on the up.

4/1
Sergei Prokofiev gelding who has offered something to work on both starts to date, staying on for third of 10 in maiden at this course (7f) 27 days ago. Likely he can do better still on that evidence, particularly when tackling handicaps.

Foaled March 1. €10,000 yearling, Sioux Nation colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 7f winner Va Va Vroom. Dam, maiden (stayed 1m), half-sister to useful 7.5f/8.5f winner Breath Away.

80/1
Twice-raced maiden who did no better for debut when ninth of 11 in maiden at this C&D (AW, 125/1) 15 days ago, never dangerous. However, he's in good hands and longer trips/handicaps will likely see him in a better light moving forward.

3/1
Time Test filly who showed benefit of debut experience when keeping on third of 12 in maiden at this C&D (AW) 14 days ago. Claims of being in the mix again with a repeat.

Forecasts

Only In Manila (9/4), Spirit Of Athene (3/1), Chelio (4/1), Al Bowlly (4/1), Going To Graceland (11/2), Always A Saint (22/1), Lord Mayor (80/1), Klammer Express (125/1)

Verdict

ONLY IN MANILA's latest Kempton third has to go down as a shade disappointing, yet his previous form gives him standout claims in this line-up and he's worth another chance with first-time cheekpieces applied. Spirit of Athene is next best ahead of newcomer Al Bowlly and Chelio.

  1. Only In Manila9/4
  2. Spirit Of Athene3/1
  3. Al Bowlly4/1
