Catalyst Finance British EBF Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

Went backwards from his debut when fifth of 9 at Pontefract (6f). Probably one for handicaps now.

100,000 gns Havana Grey colt sets the standard on his promising debut third at Leicester and will improve.

Entitled to come on for his seventh of 13 in C&D maiden last week but nurseries may prove more his bag.

Foaled March 18. €8,000 yearling, resold £35,000 yearling, Dubawi Legend colt. Dam, sprint maiden, closely related to useful 8.5f/9f winner Lady Valeur. Interesting newcomer for yard very capable with juveniles.

Foaled April 18. 40,000 gns yearling, Dark Angel gelding. Brother to useful 5.5f-7f winner Chardy Party and half-brother to 2-y-o 6f winner Sunny Smile. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Market usually a good guide for stable's debutants.

Foaled February 10. 40,000 gns yearling, Showcasing colt. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to very smart 5f/6f winner Bradsell out of useful 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Russian Punch. Makes some appeal on pedigree but more likely one for the longer term.

Bred to be speedy but only showed greenness when (25/1) seventh of 9 in novice at Sandown (5f, good to soft) on debut.

Didn't offer a lot on debut at Sandown (7f) and Sean Levey looks elsewhere.

Foaled March 19. €14,000 foal, €30,000 yearling, Space Blues colt. Half-brother to 5f winner Boyne Lady. Dam twice-raced half-sister to smart winner up to 1½m Centennial out of smart 7f winner Lurina. Betting should offer plenty of clues first time up.

Foaled March 4. No Nay Never colt. Dam, 5f winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to smart 7f winner Big Handsome. In good hands and one to take seriously if the market speaks in his favour.

£12,000 breeze-up purchase. Showed ability when runner-up on debut at Chepstow (6f) and could easily improve with Oisin Murphy taking over.
