Skylar³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Rowan Scott| T: C Johnston

Encouraging debut third in 1m maiden at Haydock but failed to build on it when fifth of 8 in maiden at Goodwood (1¼m, good to firm) last month. Worth another chance.

Forecasts

Iron Stone Lad (5/4), Caldo (7/2), Skylar (6/1), Charmed Boy (8/1), Sir Nicholas (12/1), Dj Harry (16/1), Sardinero (20/1), Giant Dan Burn (25/1), Sir Terry Hadley (25/1)

IRON STONE LAD has shaped with promise when runner-up on both his starts at Newbury and York and can get off the mark here at the chief expense of Caldo who also looks to have better days ahead of him and rates a big threat. Charmed Boy is another open to progress and appeals as the pick of the remainder.
