Horse A-Z
Frankel colt. Dam 1m-1¼m winner. Newcomers from yard command respect so he's one to note, especially if the market speaks in his favour.
Timeform
Made appeal on paper and offered some encouragement when third of 5 in novice (10/1) at Kempton (8f) on debut 26 days ago. Entitled to take a step forward from that first experience, so he enters calculations.

Timeform
Bit of promise on debut but wasn't able to build on that effort when fifth of 9 in novice (16/1) at Chelmsford City (8f) 18 days ago. Could still have more to offer, though needs another run for a handicap mark.
|
Timeform
Sent off at big odds (200/1) but much improved from debut when fourth of 12 in novice at Lingfield (8f, AW) 2 weeks ago. Needs to find more again, but this step up in trip promises to suit based on pedigree.

Improved from debut when third at Bath (8f) in October and ran respectably switched to all-weather when second of 8 in novice (3/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 25 days ago. Leading contender with cheekpieces on 1st time.

Has made little impact in 2 starts so far, again slowly away when eighth of 9 in novice (125/1) at Chelmsford City (8f) 32 days ago. Looks to be up against it.

Timeform
Down the field on debut but showed a bit more when sixth of 11 in novice at Lingfield (8f, AW, 80/1) 3 weeks ago. Further improvement required as she goes up again in distance.

Forecasts

New Bay Star (13/8), Asia Force (15/8), Inherent Resolve (8/1), Level Look (8/1), Genuine Warrior (10/1), Angry Ant (12/1), Al Amirah (33/1)

Verdict

Upped in trip for all-weather debut, NEW BAY STAR got back on track when runner-up at Chelmsford last time and he is taken to go one better with cheekpieces added. The main danger could be Asia Force, who is respected for Karl Burke on debut, while Genuine Warrior is open to improvement with his first run behind him.
