Elias Escape

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Shane Gray| T: R A Fahey

33/1

£40,000 2-y-o, Dandy Man colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 6f winner She'sashambles and 9f winner Dr Hisham. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to very smart winner up to 1m Killybegs. Makes paper appeal and interesting what the market makes of him on debut.

Hungarian^p1,t²⁰⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: Lemos Souza| OR: 85

8/11

Son of Starspangledbanner who improved with each run as a juvenile, equipped with blinkers when posting a very solid fourth in big field 7f sales race at Newmarket (7f) in October. Cheekpieces the headgear of choice on return and big player back in novice company.

Form: 2534-

Lucky Hero²⁰⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 77

11/4

Displayed fairly useful form as a 2-y-o, making the frame on 5 of his 7 starts at up to 7f. Excuses when down the field in a Goodwood nursery on final outing in October and no surprise to see him thereabouts on return with visor discarded. Has been gelded.

Whernside¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: E Bethell

4/1

Lope Y Fernandez gelding who left his debut form behind after 5 months off when second behind stablemate in a Newcastle novice (7f) 17 days ago, finishing with running left. Yard continues in fine form and he's very much the type to go on improving switched to turf.

Form: 7-2

Pacific Glory

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby

33/1

2,500 gns foal, Masar gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including 11f winner Fedya and 1¼m-1½m winner Nairai, both in France. Dam US 2-y-o 6f winner. Stable landed this 12 months ago but pedigree suggests he'll come into his own over longer trips in due course.

Hungarian (8/11), Lucky Hero (11/4), Whernside (4/1), Pacific Glory (33/1), Elias Escape (33/1)

HUNGARIAN showed more than enough in 4 runs as a juvenile to think a race of this nature is well within his grasp and he can make light of a 6-month absence and come out on top in first-time cheekpieces. Whernside stepped up on his debut effort when runner up at Newcastle 17 days ago and there's undoubtedly more to come from Ed Bethell's charge. Lucky Hero also has the form to play a part on seasonal bow.
