(7)

Faeberon¹⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: R Havlin| T: S & E Crisford

16/1

475,000 gns son of Sea The Stars who ran to a fair level both starts at 2 yrs, shaping a fair bit better than bare result when fourth in 7-runner maiden at Newcastle (1m) in October, doing too much too soon. Capable of better now upped to 1¼m.

Form: 74-

(8)

High Storm²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S H James| T: K R Burke| OR: 80

13/2

Bred to be useful over middle distances and he matched the form displayed in 2 starts as a juvenile when second of 6 in novice at Southwell (11f) 4 weeks ago, having work cut out with promising newcomer but clear of rest. Entitled to come on for that.

Form: 34-2

(1)

Marasi Bay

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D C Costello| T: C ApplebyWS

16/1

Siyouni colt. Dam, winner up to 11.3f (won Cheshire Oaks), half-sister to high-class 1m-1¼m winner Real World. Ticks plenty of boxes on paper representing top stable so confidence behind him in the betting would need to be viewed positively. Has had breathing operation.

(6)

Rebel Legend

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Davies| T: W J Haggas

22/1

€42,000 foal, 110,000 gns yearling, Australia colt. Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1¼m Irish Legend and 9f-10.2f winner Invisible Friend, both useful. One of 2 interesting debutants from powerful yard and the betting ought to prove a useful guide.

(5)

Sailor Song²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Planas⁽³⁾| T: C Appleby

20/1

€100,000 Zarak gelding who showed ability whilst highlighting the experience won't be wasted on him when fourth in 6-runner Southwell novice (11f) 4 weeks ago. Well-bred sort and he's entitled to progress.

Form: 4

(9)

Super Crown

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Cieren Fallon| T: W J Haggas

11/2

950,000 gns yearling, St Mark's Basilica colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful 1m-1½m winner Ottery and 1½m winner Listentome. Dam, German Group 2 1¼m winner. Noteworthy newcomer representing top yard and well worth considering before market clues.

(4)

Three No Trumps¹²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: H Crouch| T: E A L Dunlop

22/1

Make Believe colt who posted a fair effort over a trip likely to be short of his optimum when staying on for third at Kempton (1m) on debut in November. Open to improvement with 1¼m looking sure to suit.

Form: 3-

(2)

Turty Tree¹⁵⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: P J McDonald| T: A M Balding

1/1

Well-bred New Bay colt who shaped with plenty of encouragement when runner-up in a Newmarket novice (1m) in October, green but noted doing good late work. Appeals as the type who will step up plenty and he's shortlisted now tackling 1¼m on return.

Form: 2-

(3)

Valenday¹⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan

7/2

Green but showed plenty of ability when second on debut at York (7f) in September and similar form despite waywardness under pressure when third over 1m back there a month later. Very much the type to progress again as a 3-y-o over this longer trip and he's one to consider.

Form: 23-

Forecasts

Turty Tree (10/3), Super Crown (7/2), Valenday (4/1), Marasi Bay (9/2), High Storm (8/1), Sailor Song (12/1), Rebel Legend (12/1), Faeberon (20/1), Three No Trumps (25/1)

The market is likely to prove informative in assessing the newcomers but there was plenty to like about TURTY TREE's Newmarket second under hands-and-heels riding in the autumn and Andrew Balding's colt promises to do significantly better now upped in trip as a 3-y-o. Valenday showed plenty himself in 2 starts as a 2-y-o and is feared along with William Haggas newcomer Super Crown.
