425,000gns purchase who confirmed debut promise when dominant winner of Wolverhampton maiden 4 weeks ago. Had plenty in hand that day so big shout under a penalty.

Palace Pier gelding. Closely related to smart 8.3f-1½m winner Mashhoor and half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1¼m Faciascura. Dam 1¼m/11f winner. Shaped well by the end having looked badly in need of the experience when third in Newmarket maiden in April. Will improve.

$100,000 yearling, €150,000 2-y-o, Munnings gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including winner up to 1¼m Desert Peace and winner 5f-6.5f Mission Beach. Dam, US 2-y-o 4.5f (including minor stakes) winner, sister to multiple US graded winner Taris, won Grade 1 7f event.

Found only subsequent Dewhurst winner Gewan too good on debut at Newbury last summer. Turned over on the all-weather next 2 starts but was a good second of 16 on handicap debut at Meydan when last seen in late January. Leading contender.

300,000 gns yearling, Mehmas colt. Dam, 5.7f/6f winner, half-sister to winner up to 1¾m Micro Manage and winner up to 1m Magnanimous (by Mehmas) (both smart). Likely type but up against a couple of potentially useful sorts on debut.
