Dream Of Albion

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: Mrs A J Perrett

50/1

45,000 gns yearling, Oasis Dream gelding. Half-brother to 6f winner Magical Merlin. Dam, ran once at 2 yrs, half-sister to smart 6f winner Shanghai Glory. The market can guide.

Form:

Mile End Road

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Cieren Fallon| T: James Owen

9/1

Frankel colt. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner who barely stayed 1m, won Prix Morny and second in Irish 1000 Guineas. One to consider on his debut, especially if the market vibes are positive.

Form:

(2)

Palliser

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: A Watson

20/1

14,000 gns 3-y-o, Kingman gelding. Brother to useful 7f-9f winner Nikovo and half-brother to 3 winners, including 1¼m winner Dantora and winner up to 1m Donna Nook. Makes some appeal on paper.

Form:

Vincenzo Bellini¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Hope Regan⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Loughnane

200/1

Failed to build on debut fifth with sixth of 8 in maiden at Ffos Las (1m, good) 15 days ago. Has plenty to find.

Form: 56

(5)

Graniteville¹²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Botti| OR: 82

4/1

Fair ex-French filly who signed off for Andre Fabre with a solid sixth of 17 in maiden at Saint-Cloud (1m, good) in April. Since changed hands for 12,000 gns and not out of things for her new yard after a break.

Form: 0-46

(7)

Merry¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: James Horton| OR: 72

4/1

Zoustar filly who has shaped with promise all 4 starts on the all-weather, returning from 3 months off with a very good second of 10 on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7f) 19 days ago. A likely player back in maiden company.

Form: 3-452

(9)

River Nile³⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: A M Balding

16/1

Teofilo filly. 9/2, encouraging debut sixth of 7 in maiden at Sandown (7f, soft) last August. Should have more to offer on her comeback, especially if the betting speaks in her favour.

Form: 6-

(4)

Spareapenny³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: P Owens

300/1

40/1, last of 5 in maiden at Yarmouth (7f, firm) on debut 35 days ago. Lots more is needed from this daughter of Eqtidaar.

Form: 5

(1)

Withtearsinmyeyes⁹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Loughnane| T: J Channon| OR: 81

4/5

Fairly useful form when placed on all her 3 runs around 1m, posting a good third of 10 in maiden at Windsor (good to firm) in May. That form has proved solid so she can go very well after a break with Billy Loughnane up.

Form: 223

Forecasts

Withtearsinmyeyes (4/5), Merry (4/1), Graniteville (4/1), Mile End Road (9/1), River Nile (16/1), Palliser (20/1), Dream Of Albion (50/1), Vincenzo Bellini (200/1), Spareapenny (300/1)

The market should prove revealing but the vote goes to WITHTEARSINMYEYES who holds the edge on form and returns from a break with Billy Loughane an eye-catching booking. Merry rates a big threat on the back of a very good Wolverhampton handicap second, while Marco Botti's new recruit Graniteville and debutants Mile End Road and Palliser are interesting also.
