7/1, fifth of 11 in maiden at Kempton (1m, 7/1) on debut 21 days ago. Up in trip. Will need to step up a good deal on that form.

66/1, sixth of 10 in maiden at Doncaster (1m, good) on debut 39 days ago, running on late. Likely to improve, particularly at this longer trip.

6/4
Foaled April 14. Dubawi brother to smart 1¼m-2m winner Dubai Future, and half-brother to several winners, including 1m-9.4f winner Winter's Love. Makes obvious paper appeal for top yard with a strong record in this.

6/1, showed plenty amidst greenness when fourth of 8 in maiden at Goodwood (1¼m, good to firm) on debut 28 days ago, never nearer. Looks sure to progress.

Foaled March 17. Al Rifai colt. Brother to smart 1½m-1¾m winner El Habeeb and 1m winner Manikan, and half-brother to smart 1¼m-1½m winner Gold Wand. Dam 6f/7f winner. Good pedigree but the chances are he's best watched here.

Foaled March 18. Baaeed gelding. Half-brother to useful 1m winner Chiringita. Dam, winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 1m winner), half-sister to smart 1m-1½m winner Phantom Flight. Best to look elsewhere unless the betting suggests otherwise.

3/1
An 800,000gns yearling who has placed on both starts, stepping up on debut when going down narrowly at Newcastle (1m) 3 weeks ago. Should be more to come as his stamina is drawn out.

Forecasts

Future Role (6/4), Night Of Gold (3/1), Henrik Ibsen (4/1), Amico Mio (9/2), Roos Racing Rocket (8/1), Falcon Fly (14/1), Iverson (40/1), Killhope Law (40/1)

Verdict

Charlie Appleby has won 4 of the last 5 runnings of this, including twice with newcomers, so his debutant FUTURE ROLE gets the nod, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Night of Gold and Henrik Ibsen can follow him home in that order.
