Completed a double when victorious in a Listed event over 1m at Pontefract (soft) in October last year. Bred to appreciate this step up in distance and he holds strong claims of making a winning reappearance.

Broke his maiden at the third time of asking when successful by 1L in a 7f novice event at Chester (good) last August. Subsequently finished third in a 1m2f Group 3 at Newmarket (soft) in October and he is one for the shortlist on seasonal debut.

Improving with racing and broke his maiden on his third start when taking a four runner novice event over an extended 1m4f at Newcastle in March. Interesting to see how he performs dropping in trip and stepping up in grade on turf debut.

Stepped up on debut effort when winning by 1¾L in a maiden race over 1m2f at Newcastle in November. Second and third that day have both registered victories since and he is of interest on his first attempt at Listed company.

Three time winner as a two-year-old including over 1m in a conditions event at Chelmsford in August. Run well in defeat in two subsequent starts and he is a notable runner on seasonal reappearance.

Forecasts

English King (9/4), Berkshire Rocco (9/4), Sound Of Cannons (13/2), King's Caper (7/1), King Carney (10/1), Dark Heart (14/1), Pride Of America (20/1), Summeronsevenhills (25/1)

Verdict

BERKSHIRE ROCCO showed up well when finishing third in a Group 3 at Newmarket on his final start of last year and he is taken to register a victory in this competitive looking Derby Trial event. King Carney has already recorded a victory at this level when taking a soft ground event at Pontefract last autumn and he can take second place ahead of Sound Of Cannons who is dropping in grade.
  1. Berkshire Rocco
  2. King Carney
  3. Sound Of Cannons
