Here I Bow¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Ross Coakley| T: Oli Rix| OR: 82

50/1

Winner when trained in France at 2 yrs and edged out only by a useful filly at Le Mans on final outing. However, after 7 months off she finished down the field at Yarmouth on handicap/stable debut 11 days ago.

Form: 16652-7

Dumuji²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Jason Hart| T: C G Cox| OR: 79

5/1

Showed a good attitude when making a winning start in a 7f Kempton novice in November and wasn't ideally placed when mid-field in similar event at Lingfield on return. Worth another chance to build on debut effort as he goes handicapping.

Form: 1-5

Abundant¹⁹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: K Shoemark| T: T Ward| OR: 78| D

8/1

Progressed with each of his 3 outings in the autumn, making all for a 5½ length maiden success at Southwell in October. Merits consideration as he makes handicap debut with better still to come this year (has been gelded).

Form: 221-

Brave Hunter⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S De Sousa| T: I Mohammed & J Santos| OR: 78

17/2

Encouraging third at Yarmouth on debut but found the Chesham at Royal Ascot all too much next time. Matched the fair form he had shown at 2 yrs when mid-field in a 7f Doncaster novice 6 weeks ago, but improvement required as he starts off in handicaps.

Form: 38-6

Akho Mezzna^p1²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Jack Jones| OR: 78

22/1

Took a step forward when opening account at the fourth time of asking in 7f novice at Salisbury in October. However, he was never a threat when eighth of 12 on handicap/seasonal debut (had been gelded) at Newmarket last month. Cheekpieces go on.

Form: 2241-8

Midnight Rodeo²³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Tom Marquand| T: George Scott| OR: 77| D

12/1

Went the right way in nurseries on final 3 starts last year, off the mark at Kempton (1m) in September and following up under a penalty at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 5 days later. Will need to pick up where he left off following 7-month absence.

Form: 786211-

Ohara^p²⁰³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 77| D

22/1

Made second nursery start a winning one with a decisive success in 9-runner contest at Pontefract (1m, heavy) in October. More needed if he's to follow up on return from 6 months off.

Dartrey¹¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Edward Greatrex| T: R M Beckett| OR: 77

15/2

Much improved since being gelded and sent handicapping, recording a quick-fire Southwell hat-trick over 6f/7f in January. Had winning run ended when fourth of 11 up in grade at Newcastle (6f) later the same month, but this longer trip could suit.

Form: 00-1114

Wild Thoughts¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Saffie Osborne| T: R Spencer| OR: 77| D

7/2

Different proposition switched to handicaps this year, completing a quick-fire hat-trick in 12-runner contest at Kempton (7f) 11 days ago. Scored with plenty in hand last time, so 9 lb rise in the weights might not prevent him scoring again.

Form: 096-111

Magical Merlot³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: D Egan| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 77| BF| D

15/2

Made fourth and final start at 2 yrs a winning one when readily landing a 1m Brighton novice in October. After 6 months off (gelded), wasn't discredited when 4 lengths fifth of 7 on handicap debut at Southwell in April. Boasts the physique to do better this year.

Form: 6321-5

Annastarzy¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Alec Voikhansky| T: R Hannon| OR: 76

11/1

Fair form in a trio of starts last year and caught the eye after 6 months off when fourth of 7 in novice at Ascot 10 days ago, finishing with running left. Remains with potential as she heads into handicaps.

Form: 644-4

Berkshire Boom²⁸⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Jason Watson| T: A M Balding| OR: 74

13/2

Left debut form well behind when winning 7f maiden at Chester last summer, a race which has produced several subsequent winners. Stamina on dam's side of pedigree so he could progress further as he makes handicap/seasonal debut having been gelded.

WILD THOUGHTS made it 3 from 3 in handicaps with a comfortable success at Kempton 11 days ago and he can take this step up in grade in his stride with further improvement to come. A pair making their first handicap starts head the list of dangers, with Abundant feared most ahead of Annastarzy.
