Virgin Bet Cock O'The North EBF Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)

Foaled February 8. 18,000 gns yearling, 65,000 gns 2-y-o, Starman colt. Half-brother to several winners, including useful/ungenuine winner around 6f Admiral D and French 1m-1¼m winner Ascot Grey. Held back by inexperience starting out on heavy ground at Leicester. This will reveal more.

Foaled May 10. Mehmas colt. Brother to 2-y-o 7f winner Misappropriation. Dam unraced sister to useful winner up to 9f (including US Grade 3) Granny's Kitten. Always behind on Newmarket debut over 7f last week.

Foaled March 25. €100,000 yearling, Too Darn Hot colt. Dam, German 1m-11f winner, half-sister to useful 7f-1¼m winner Turning Top. Expensive purchase for one from this yard.

Foaled March 23. 3,500 gns yearling, Century Dream colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 1m-1½m winner in Scandinavia Castashadow and 2-y-o 6.5f winner abroad Dareeshart. Yard has a winning juvenile debutant from 2 runners this season.

Foaled April 4. 24,000 gns foal, €38,000 yearling, Tasleet gelding. Dam lightly-raced maiden half-sister to useful winner up to 1¼m American Sonja. Yard's 2-y-os tend to come on plenty for their opening run.

Foaled April 17. Lope De Vega filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart winner up to 1m Dr Zempf and useful 2-y-o 6f winner Dancin Inthestreet. Dam 2-y-o 5f/6f winner. Tongue tied for debut and pulled well clear of the rest when second at Leicester. Claims look fairly obvious.
