11/4
6f Pontefract winner whose best effort was over this trip in the Acomb at York. Looks a likely player back in this sphere.

14/1
Showed nothing on debut but sprang a 50-1 surprise at Beverley last time. Clearly not written off, but will need significant further improvement to defy a penalty in this field.

Horse silk
100/1
Well held in both starts and is bred to do better over further/with age. Best watched.

5/2
5-1 on debut, when racing freely and beaten 3L at Yarmouth (7f). That was not a bad effort considering and if he can settle better this time, he could have a much bigger say.

100/1
Improved from first run to second, but looks more of a longer tern prospect than one for today.

Horse silk
40/1
£14,500 vendor buy-back at a yearling, Seventh foal. Half-brother to four winners, out of an unraced half-sister to French 1m3f winner Private Party. Nice enough pedigree but unlikely to strike on debut.
Debut was better than his more recent effort and neither looks good enough to be winning this.

68,000gns yearling. Dam a 1m3f winner. Likely to do better with age and over further.

Horse silk
11/8
10-1 on debut, when 2L fifth at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm). Should improve for that experience and is a likely player in this field.
€18,000 foal, 6,500gns yearling, £20,000 at two. Third foal. Dam unraced sister to 1m2f Group 3 winner/Oaks third Pictavia. Yard not known for regular two-year-old successes. Probably best watched on debut.

Tailed off in novice events at Carlisle and Beverley. Readily opposed.

Forecasts

Snow Storm (11/8), Awe (5/2), Ventura Ocean (11/4), Reeves (3/1), Major Snugfit (14/1), Navajo Pass (25/1), Gordalan (40/1), The Rutland Rebel (40/1), Moonlight Escapade (66/1), Gates Of Horn (100/1), Agravain (100/1), Lakme (125/1)

Verdict

A race thin on serious competitors and VENTURA OCEAN is taken to confirm that he is the class act in the line-up on what we have seen so far. Snow Storm can improve for his debut and take a hand, with Reeves and Awe two other likely candidates.
  1. Ventura Ocean
  2. Snow Storm
  3. Awe
