Tasleet gelding, three-year-old, first foal from a dam of little account. Doesn't look an obvious type on racecourse bow.
|
Lightly raced colt from a 7f winning dam who offered something to work on when fourth of 6 on debut. Seventh of 12 in maiden at Southwell (7/2) 21 days ago, caught 3 wide but failed to progress. Steps up in trip and while still early days, he may be better off in handicaps.
|
45,000 gns yearling, €80,000 2-y-o. Night of Thunder gelding. Half-brother to useful 1¼m-1½m winner Munsif. Dam, ran once at 2 yrs, half-sister to high-class winner up to 1½m Taghrooda. Makes some appeal on paper but could be a longer-term prospect given his pedigree.
|
Didn't go with much fluency on debut at Wolverhampton and went backwards in stronger race when seventh of 12 in maiden at Kempton Park 22 days ago, dived right leaving stalls and weakened final 1f. Back into novice company but may need more time.
|
Lightly raced sort who has shown little in four starts, finishing last twice including when ninth of 9 in a solid maiden at Yarmouth last September. Had no hope in that company and returns from wind/gelding operation with first-time tongue strap. May do better in handicaps.
|
100,000 gns yearling, Pinatubo colt. Fourth of 12 in 1m maiden at Kempton 15 days ago on debut, offering something to work on though would have benefited from a stronger gallop. Drops back to 7f but third has won since and he should improve. Solid claims.
|
€40,000 foal. Phoenix of Spain colt, half-brother to useful winners and out of a dam who was a 2-y-o 7f winner. In good hands for debut and makes appeal, especially if supported.
|
Once raced gelding from smart family but well held on debut, eleventh of 12 in maiden at Kempton Park 15 days ago. Needs to show significant improvement.
|
170,000 gns Space Blues gelding. Sixth of 12 in maiden at Kempton Park on debut 22 days ago, gave the impression he is better than that bare result having been left poorly placed. Can improve and rates a leading contender.
|
170,000 gns yearling, Kodi Bear filly. Showed little on sole start to date when 11th of 12 in maiden at Leicester (18/1) in September (sold from Ollie Sangster 12,000 gns). First run for new stable and market should prove best guide with first-time hood applied.

Forecasts
Zambezi River (4/6), Stay Salty (4/1), Tamashal (6/1), Master Of Keraunos (9/1), Grey Force (14/1), Sergeant Chaos (25/1), Lady Of Clover (33/1), Quick Quasar (33/1), Claytons Kolatonic (80/1), Warm Waters (200/1)
ZAMBEZI RIVER gave the impression he is better than his sixth-placed finish at Kempton 22 days ago when left poorly placed and he can improve to get off the mark on his second start. Stay Salty offered something to work on when fourth on debut at Kempton 15 days ago and that form has been franked while Tamashal looks an interesting newcomer.
