Foaled April 7. Wells Farhh Go gelding. Dam 1¼m-1½m winner. Doesn't appeal as an obvious type on paper.

€140,000 Stradivarius colt. Makes some appeal on paper but shaped like one for later on when well-held last of 4 on debut at Beverley (7.5f) in late-July.

550,000 gns Night Of Thunder colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 7f Dhabab (2-y-o 6f winner). Carrying plenty of condition/off the bridle before most when well beaten in a valuable maiden at York on debut. Entitled to do better with sights lowered here.

Foaled April 23. 24,000 gns yearling, Bated Breath gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including useful 1¼m winner Hulcote and 1¼m-2m winner Mark of Gold. Likely to be a longer-term prospect.

Perfect Power gelding with something of a mixed-bag pedigree. Showed ability when 10 lengths fourth of 12 on debut at Kempton (7f). He'll improve stepping up in trip and merits respect sent North by yard who is 3-3 with maiden/novice runners at this course.

Foaled February 21. €165,000 yearling, resold 155,000 gns yearling, Study of Man colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 6f winner Sparkling Sea. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to smart 1m-1½m winner Crystal Black. Interesting newcomer, especially if supported.

Foaled March 21. €40,000 foal, 65,000 gns yearling, Calyx gelding. Dam, placed at 7f-1½m, out of useful winner up to 6f (2-y-o 5f winner) Miss Lahar. Has already been gelded and may need the experience on racecourse bow.

From a Group-winning French family. Bound to improve for his 7 lengths fourth of 9 on racecourse bow at Haydock (1m, good to soft), when not given anything like a hard time. Looks up to winning a maiden/novice, though may need Bassrah to underperform on this occasion.

110,000 gns Wootton Bassett filly from a good family. Continued race-by-race improvement when 3 lengths fourth behind a subsequent winner in valuable maiden on return at Sandown (7f), looking suited by the longer trip. Sets a fair standard and pedigree offers hope she'll stay this extra furlong.

Offered something to work on when 2½ lengths fourth of 11 in a Redcar seller (7f) on debut. Needs plenty more against better opposition here, though, for all she will stay this longer trip.

Forecasts

Bassrah (15/8), Zarak Crown (3/1), Magwitch (9/2), Tyrrhenian Thunder (9/2), Perfect Heir (13/2), Shared Odyssey (13/2), Nextgen King (22/1), Giant Dan Burn (25/1), Youcanbetheone (28/1), Here's To It (33/1), Bollin Farhh Go (100/1)

Verdict

Improving Wootton Bassett filly BASSRAH sets a fair standard and may well make it fourth time lucky. Zarak Crown, Perfect Heir and Magwitch could show plenty more than on their respective debuts, while a couple of well-bred newcomers need a close look in the betting.
