Arrbob²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Russell| T: R A Fahey

7/2

20/1, very green when ninth of 15 in Brocklesby at Doncaster (5f, good to soft) on debut 26 days ago, very slowly away and always towards the rear. Will need to be a lot sharper second time up.

Form: 9

Disbelief

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Mikey Sheehy| T: A Keatley

11/1

Foaled January 18. £26,000 Ubettabelieveit gelding. Dam maiden out of once-raced half-sister to smart sprinter Invincible Army. In good hands and needs keeping an eye on in the betting.

Matteo

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan

2/1

Foaled February 25. €43,000 Coulsty colt. Half-brother to 6f winner Alainn Tu. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Stable took this with a newcomer last year and had a first-time-out 2-y-o winner at Thirsk recently. A market move would look significant.

Form:

(8)

Ronson

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler

100/1

Foaled February 23. Ubettabelieveit colt. Dam 6f winner. The stable isn't a regular source of first-time-out winners so it's best to look elsewhere unless the betting strongly hints otherwise.

Concert Pitch

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: B Ellison

80/1

Foaled February 14. €7,000 Kuroshio half-brother to 2 winners, including 1½m-1¾m winner Philos. Dam, 9.5f-11f winner, half-sister to useful 9f-10.5f winner Santa Ponsa. Winning 2-y-o debutants isn't the stable speciality

(3)

Craven Force

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Joanna Mason| T: Craig Lidster

16/1

Foaled February 15. 16,000 gns Caturra half-brother to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 7f winner Sesame Birah and 1½m-15f winner Make Us Proud. A watching brief is the percentage call on debut.

Amantha⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison

66/1

28/1, last of 11 on C&D (good) on debut 8 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot in a very short time.

Beautiful Rainbow

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: J Tate

11/2

Foaled April 5. €40,000 Cotai Glory filly. Dam, winner up to 1m (2-y-o 6f winner), half-sister to very smart sprinter Amadeus Wolf. Makes plenty of appeal on paper.

Form:

(6)

Lauralynn⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: D Carroll

5/2

Inns of Court filly who showed ability when 40/1 third of 11 on last week's C&D debut but the form is only modest and she'll almost certainly need more to take this.

Form: 3

Non-Runners

Half A Hoof

Weight: 9-2| Age: 2

T: Ollie Sangster J: Pierre-Louis Jamin

Forecasts

Matteo (2/1), Lauralynn (5/2), Arrbob (7/2), Half A Hoof (7/2), Beautiful Rainbow (11/2), Disbelief (11/1), Craven Force (16/1), Amantha (66/1), Concert Pitch (80/1), Ronson (100/1)

This has the look of a race which could go the way of a newcomer. Kevin Ryan saddled a first-time-out 2-y-o winner at Thirsk earlier in the month so his MATTEO is the suggestion before any betting clues are known. Beautiful Rainbow and Half A Hoof are other likely types on paper.
