Aloysius Lilius

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan

16/1

Gregorian colt, cost €46,000 as a yearling. Dam a sprint winner. Yard do well with their juveniles and worth watching in the market.

Form:

(3)

Ballistic

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: L Morris| T: R M H Cowell

16/1

Kodiac colt, cost €180,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to useful sprinter Goodwood Crusader and dam a sprint winner and half-sister to Group 3 winner. Bred for this test and yard do well with their sprinters, plenty to like on paper.

I Am A Dreamer¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P J McDonald| T: C & M Johnston| BF

9/2

Dream Ahead colt, cost 62,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to Italian Group 1 winner amongst many others and dam a useful sprinter. Trainer's early season juveniles usually forward but last of three on debut last time and others preferred.

Form: 3

Jackstar

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R Kingscote| T: Tom Dascombe

11/4

Dark Angel colt, cost £120,000 as a yearling. Dam was placed in Group company over a mile. Looks like one for middle distances rather than this sort of this trip.

Pesci

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey

16/1

Elzaam colt, cost €20,000 as a foal and £35,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to a juvenile who won over sprint trips and dam was a winner over further. Yard can ready one for a debut a betting market likely to be the best guide to this ones chance.

Form:

(4)

Treasure Quest

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: B J Meehan

20/1

Sepoy colt, cost 12,500 gns as a foal and £30,000 as a yearling. Dam a half-sister to Group 3 winner and Group 1 placed Penkenna Princess amongst others. Others make more appeal.

Form:

(2)

Van Beethoven

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien

9/4

Scat Daddy colt, dam a dirt winner and sister to the dam of a Grade 1 winner. Represents powerful connections but two-year-old debutantes often in need of their first outing and cut in the ground is a worry given his dirt pedigree.

Form:

(7)

Ynys Mon¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: C Hills

6/1

Olympic Glory colt, cost 85,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to a juvenile sprint winner and dam a Listed winner over sprint trips. Well beaten on debut at Bath in very testing ground but yard are flying and not ruled out back on better ground.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Van Beethoven (9/4), Jackstar (11/4), I Am A Dreamer (9/2), Ynys Mon (6/1), Ballistic (16/1), Pesci (16/1), Aloysius Lilius (16/1), Treasure Quest (20/1)

YNYS MON clearly didn't appreciate the extremely testing ground at Bath when last seen but with that experience under his belt, he may be able to do better for a yard that are flying at present. Ballistic looks all speed in his pedigree and may be capable of running well for Robert Cowell, a trainer who excels with sprinters. Van Beethoven can't be ruled out given his connections but any cut in the ground would probably be against him given his pedigree.
