Modest maiden hurdler who was well held in a pair of 1½m novices at Kempton last month.

Form: 78

Journalism^b1,t1¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rob Hornby| T: H Al Jehani

Well held in novice company (over 1m) at Windsor and Nottingham recently. Blinkers and tongue strap go on for first time.

Form: 40

(7)

Medaali^t¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Simon Crisford

9/2 and tongue tied when an encouraging fifth of 14 in maiden at Nottingham (1m, good to soft) on debut 19 days ago. This Ghaiyyath gelding should progress.

Form: 5

(10)

Ruthless Ambition

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: D M Simcock

Foaled February 10. $150,000 foal who is closely related to useful US multiple 6f winner Sunny Dale. The betting should guide to expectations for this Violence gelding.

(8)

Steamroller¹⁷¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Planas| T: B J Meehan

€200,000 Too Darn Hot gelding. Hinted at promise without getting involved when sixth of 9 in strong 1¼m Newbury maiden on debut in May, proving green. Scopey sort and should improve after a break.

Form: 6

(6)

Watch The King¹⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Edward Greatrex| T: Ian Williams| OR: 82

Fairly useful ex-French gelding. 10/1 and hooded for first time when a creditable fifth of 10 in maiden at Compiegne (1m, good) in June on final run for Fabrice Chappet. Might need this for new handler.

Form: 4455

(2)

Opal Rose²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Taylor Fisher| T: J Tickle

150/1, never-dangerous seventh of 10 in novice at Kempton (1m) on her belated debut 24 days ago. This Workforce mare needs to take a big step forward.

Form: 7

(1)

Abbey Bartlet

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: C Lee| T: T Kent

40,000 gns yearling, Starspangledbanner filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 6f winner Lajooje and 1½m winner Los Toldos. Dam, 7f/1m winner, half-sister to high-class winner up to 7f Equiano. Makes some appeal on paper and worth a look.

(4)

Raider⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey

Sent off 4/1 but never a threat after a slow start when fifth of 7 in maiden at Leicester (1¼m, good to firm) on debut 42 days ago. This well-related Saxon Warrior filly can do better.

Form: 5

(5)

Wosta²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Oisin Murphy| T: J & T Gosden

Make Believe filly looked green and caught the eye when a debut second of 8 in 1m maiden at Kempton 3 weeks ago, finishing with a flourish. Can take a sizeable step forward here and the one to beat.

Form: 2

Forecasts

Wosta (10/11), Steamroller (11/2), Medaali (6/1), Watch The King (7/1), Raider (10/1), Ruthless Ambition (14/1), Abbey Bartlet (20/1), Journalism (25/1), Opal Rose (100/1), Katana (100/1)

WOSTA made a promising start when a fast-finishing runner-up at Kempton and can go one better here. Steamroller could emerge as the main danger back from a break after an encouraging Newbury debut sixth, while Raider and Medaali also have more to offer and appeal as the pick of the rest.
