5/1

14/1, won 12-runner maiden at Chepstow (6f, good, 14/1) on debut 17 days ago, deserving credit having still had plenty to do under 2f out. Will improve.

The Harv

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Oisin Murphy| T: M O'Callaghan

5/6

Foaled March 6. Ten Sovereigns half-brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Awraad. Dam 5f-6f winner (including at 2 yrs). This £260,000 breeze-up purchase makes obvious appeal on debut with Oisin Murphy booked.

The Harv (5/6), Mobadir (9/2), My A'ali Baba (5/1), Bulletsnap (17/2), Asgar (14/1), Oakford (16/1)

THE HARV cost £260,000 at the breeze-ups and can strike for an Irish yard which has tasted first-time-out juvenile success in Britain before. The main threat may come from fellow newcomer Bulletsnap, particularly if the betting speaks for him. My A'Ali Baba did well to get up on his Chepstow debut and should also have a say despite his penalty.
