Little impact in his 3 qualifying runs over summer but wouldn't be the first from this yard to show his true colours now handicapping. Worth keeping a close eye on upped to 1m back from 11 weeks off (has been gelded).
|
Placed twice from his 5 starts, no better or worse for a first try at 1m when third of 13 in novice at Ripon (1m, good to firm) just under 8 weeks ago. Looks more or less exposed but this switch to a nursery could elicit further progress.
|
Produced best effort to date when fifth of 12 in novice at Kempton (1m) just under 5 weeks ago and could take another step forward now tackling a nursery for the first time.
|
Matched previous form when fourth of 11 in nursery at Bath (1m, good) last month. First-time blinkers applied for this all-weather debut and she shouldn't be underestimated.
|
No better than mid-field in his 3 qualifying runs but latest sixth of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7f) suggested he could improve on nursery debut now upped to 1m.
|
Standout effort seemingly flatters him considering it came in a steadily-run race. Needs this step up to 1m to prove transformative.
|
No Nay Never filly who had Murphy up for her nursery debut and ran best race when third of 10 at Yarmouth (1m, good) 3 weeks ago. Shortlisted returned to all-weather.
|
Ran easily her best race when second of 13 in nursery at Brighton (1m, good) 10 days ago, suited by the longer trip and doing by far the best of those held up. Every chance of going one better here provided she takes to the all-weather.
|
Down the field all 3 starts at Yarmouth, most recently upped to 9f 3 weeks ago. Could well make more of a splash now handicapping for his capable yard dropped to 1m.
|
Offered something to work on amidst greenness when third on debut at Beverley (5f) in July but has gone the wrong way since. Needs this markedly longer trip/switch to all-weather to get her back on track.
|
Down the field all 5 starts, including in a couple of nurseries. First-time blinkers applied for his all-weather debut and leap of faith required to support.
|
Tailed off all 3 starts. Upped markedly in trip for this handicap/all-weather debut.

Forecasts
Kaito (6/5), Casablanca Dream (7/2), Temple Court (7/1), Strong Performance (8/1), Courage Best (10/1), Arlecchino's Moon (12/1), Thunda Struck (12/1), Le Grand Etoile (25/1), Unbeatable Fame (50/1), Solar Mission (50/1), Ubettanotblink (80/1), Purrista (125/1)
Cases can be made for any number of these but the most persuasive is for COURAGE BEST, who ran easily her best race when finishing runner-up at Brighton recently and Rod Millman's filly can go one better on her all-weather debut. Casablanca Dream upped her game tackling her first nursery at Yarmouth 3 weeks ago, so she looks an obvious threat, with Thunda Struck and Kaito both warranting plenty of respect, too.
