11/2

Zelzal colt who took a step forward to get off the mark in 3-runner novice at Goodwood (1¼m, heavy) 23 days ago. Capable of further progress now going into handicaps but others look better treated at these weights.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Harry Charlton| OR: 73

40/1

Debut 7f novice winner at Kempton in September 2024 for Daniel & Claire Kubler. Very lightly raced since and well held for new yard at Newbury (1¼m) and Kempton (1m) this season. Needs to step forward.

Wuood²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| OR: 76

9/1

Night of Thunder colt landed 7f novice at Doncaster in August. Took another step forward on handicap debut when fifth of 7 at Kempton (1m) since. Likely capable of better still over this longer trip. Very much one to consider.

Progressive Study Of Man colt who resumed from 6 months off with a very good second of 12 in maiden at Lingfield (1m, all-weather) in April. Off again since but not out of things on his handicap debut with yard going well.

9/1

Fair maiden at 2yrs for Kevin Philippart de Foy. Made a winning debut for current yard at Doncaster (1¼m) on return and has continued in good nick, fifth of 8 in handicap at Haydock (1¾m, soft) 26 days ago. Possibilities.

Forecasts

Sintra (5/4), Blue Wonder (5/1), Kimeko Glory (5/1), Wreck It Ronnie (11/2), Sergei Breeze (8/1), Wuood (9/1), Cotton Bud (9/1), Get This In (18/1), Big Bear Hug (22/1), Due To Henry (33/1), Royale Goodnight (40/1), Exactly Right (250/1)

A case can be made for a few of these but BLUE WONDER still looks ahead of her mark despite being raised 5 lb for a stylish Goodwood success so looks the way to go. Wuood should find this step up in trip to his benefit and heads the list of dangers, while Sintra and Sergei Breeze also need factoring into an intriguing handicap.
