17/2, green when well-held fourth of 5 in maiden at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) on debut 63 days ago. Jockey bookings suggest Solo Quest is the stable first string.

Twice-raced colt. Left debut behind when second of 6 in novice at Goodwood (6f, soft) in June. Back from a break with his yard in better form that it was at that time. Should go well.

Forecasts

Al Widyan (13/8), Oakford (4/1), Cornichon (9/2), Hope In Havana (13/2), War Chest (7/1), Red Wizard (9/1), Solo Quest (10/1), Chevere (25/1), Worthawhistle (28/1), Halloween Jack (33/1), Starbolt (40/1), The Rusty Roleex (125/1), Angel Childe (150/1), Starlette Sky (200/1), Admiral Leach (250/1), Coatimundi (300/1)

Verdict

The Roger Teal stable is going better now than when OAKFORD was narrowly denied at Goodwood in June so perhaps this Dark Angel colt can make a successful return from a break. Al Widyan should have more to offer on the back of his Kempton third and is second choice. Hope In Havana and Cornichon are newcomers who could have a say, particularly if the betting speaks in their favour.
