Al Hudaiba (10/11), Byzantine (3/1), Shiyam (9/2), Bincimbal (9/1), Eagle Island (20/1)

AL HUDAIBA is the only 2-y-o to make the track so far this season for Charlie Appleby and looked a good prospect as he scored at Newmarket. 7f will suit and he can make it 2-2 before having his sights raised. Shiyam might be the pick of the quartet of interesting newcomers that make up the opposition.
