Comment: Frankel colt who made a pleasing start to his career when going down by only a neck over the extended 1m at Hamilton (good to firm) 27 days ago; will set a good standard for the rest if making the anticipated improvement.

Comment: Showed ability, despite pulling hard, when third in a small field at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) on debut; beaten 8l but stepped up on that form when seventh of 13 in the valuable Convivial maiden at the York Ebor meeting (7f, good to firm) last month; more needed to seriously trouble Mr Colonel, though.

Comment: 50,000euros purchase; second foal; half-brother to Italian 6f-7.5f winner (including 2yo) Cape Alava; dam placed 1m/1m2f France (RPR 72), half-sister to smart 1m4f-2m1f Flat and useful 2m-2m4f hurdle winner Burning Victory; the stable hasn't had a first-time-out 2yo winner in 2025.

Jockey: D Tudhope Trainer: David O'Meara Age/Wt: 2/9-7 F: 5

11/1

Comment: Has some smart winners in his pedigree but he weakened to finish a remote fifth of six on 7f Musselburgh debut (good; 9-1) in July; subsequently gelded; the yard won this last year but could still only consider if the betting suggests that a lot better is expected this time.

Comment: Better on AW than turf but that is reflected in his mark and there have been some promising signs on the grass this summer, including a close fifth at Haydock 13 days ago (5f, good); has a bit more to prove on slow ground (one fair run) but rider takes off a valuable 5lb and he's capable.

Comment: 6f AW win last November came off just 1lb lower; looked as though the run would bring her on when fourth of five at Hamilton four weeks ago (6f, good to firm); she will need an end to end gallop back down to 5f but it seems likely that she has a bigger effort in her at some point soon; more to prove on ground slower than good.

Comment: In the first three late last year in his three qualifying runs (1m/1m2f, AW/soft); it's a big ask to win a race this competitive on his first outing of the year but his trainer is very much among the winners and this 3yo's pedigree provides optimism he can be better than his opening mark.

11/1

Comment: 2-4 in last year's 2yo campaign (including a win on good to soft) and he reappeared with a win at Chester (7.5f, good) in May; down the field on both starts since (1m2f/7.5f, good to firm) but it will be no surprise if this lightly raced 3yo turns things around sooner rather than later.

12/1

Comment: Prominent racer whose form has been mixed since he won at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in May; however, he's 2-2 when encountering slow ground in handicaps (both wins last autumn) so is well worth a second look in view of today's conditions; wears a first-time tongue-tie.

Comment: 0-9 this season and inconsistent but runner-up three times in 2025 and he won this last year (good); effective on good to soft and possibly okay on soft; in the mix if he's on a going day in first-time cheekpieces.

Comment: Won at Ripon (1m2f, good) in April and continued in good form in May; also effective on soft ground; down the field on both runs this summer and needs to get back on track, but those were hotter races than today's and he's not written off following a 68-day break.

Comment: Getting back on slow ground is a positive and she's 5lb lower than when winning at Haydock (1m, soft) last September, but she hasn't been at the top of her game in a light campaign and a shorter trip may be preferable.

2/1

Comment: Took novice events at Beverley (1m2f, good) in April and Yarmouth (11.5f, good to soft) in the spring; well held when pitched into the Group 2 Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot (1m6f, good to firm) in June but retains obvious unexposed potential now handicapping after three months off.

Comment: Two fine runner-up efforts in good-ground staying handicaps on the Flat at Ripon (2m) and Chester (2m2f) in the spring before returning to hurdles to win a Hexham handicap (good to soft) in June; won on heavy ground last September so further rain wouldn't be an issue; should go well for last year's winning yard.

Comment: Five wins in 2024 but none in 12 outings this season; her second at Thirsk (1m4f) this month was the closest she's come to her peak form this year but she could only manage ninth at Doncaster last week.

Comment: Developed into a pretty smart staying handicapper on the Flat for Mick and David Easterby in 2021, finishing third in 2m4f handicaps at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood; respectable fifth of 32 in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f) in October of that year but not seen since; can only watch given the length of absence.

Comment: Ended a losing run at Chester (1m4f, soft) last September but was only sixth at Redcar the following month and not seen since; no great record fresh and probably safe to look elsewhere.
