bettingsites.co.uk Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

Showed more temperament than ability on belated debut here (6f) last month.

Free-going sort. Didn't kick on from his debut third behind an above-average pair at Newbury (6f) in July 2024. Sold out of Richard Hannon yard for 14,000 gns last summer (since been gelded). Drop to 5f may suit and place claims if retaining his ability/ready to roll on first start for over 2 years.

A'ali gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 6f-1m winner La Pelosa. Yard hardly a regular source of debut winners (also saddle Atomik).

Didn't show much in a couple of bumpers prior to finishing 9¾ lengths fourth of 9 on Flat debut at Newcastle (7f). Marked drop in trip suggests she's a handicap project.

Tongue strap on and showed a glimmer of promise starting out at big odds (100/1) when beaten 7¾ lengths on debut here (6f). Worth noting for each-way support with Danny Tudhope taking over in a thin race.

420,000 Ardad filly who is steadily improving. Made it a hat-trick of seconds when 2¾ lengths behind an above-average winner at this course (6f) last time. Should go one better dropped to the minimum trip here.
