Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Paddy Bradley| T: C Fellowes

66/1

Sioux Nation colt who showed only greenness when last of 10 in a Kempton novice (7f) on debut 23 days ago. Best watched now tackling a significantly longer trip.

New Poetic²²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Hart| T: W J Haggas

1/3

Son of New Bay who makes plenty of appeal on paper but looked a work in progress in 2 starts for Jessica Harrington in Ireland last year. Since made an interesting yard switch and he could prove a different proposition now starting 3-y-o campaign having been gelded.

Raggaas^t¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: O J Orr| T: S & E Crisford

10/3

200,000 gns yearling, St Mark's Basilica gelding. Bred to be useful and he showed plenty to work on debuting in a tongue strap when fourth in a Wolverhampton maiden (8.6f) 18 days ago. Entitled to build on that and bold showing expected.

Form: 4

Shoof Baeed

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: C Johnston

15/2

68,000 gns yearling, Sea The Stars colt. Brother to 2-y-o 8.6f winner Baba Ghanouj, closely related to useful 2-y-o 1m winner Star Caliber. Lots to like on paper and confidence behind him in the betting would look significant.

The Resdev Willow²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby

300/1

(Magna Grecia gelding who was at long odds for debut and offered little when last of 10 in a 1m maiden here 25 days ago.

Traveling Man¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: C Fellowes

28/1

360,000 gns purchase who attracted some support in the betting but he showed only greenness when ninth of 10 in a Salisbury maiden over this trip 10 days ago. This promises to reveal more.

RAGGAAS is bred to be useful and showed plenty to work on when fourth in a Wolverhampton maiden 18 days ago. In good hands and open to improvement, he looks the one to beat. New Poetic who could well prove a different proposition starting out for the William Haggas yard, while Shoof Baeed is a newcomer to note in the betting for clues.
