New Mandate²²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: C T Keane| T: R M Beckett| OR: 112| D

20/1

Big jump forward when landing strong listed race at Doncaster in September and didn't need to improve to follow up in Group 2 company (1m) a fortnight later. Eased off in Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf.

Fast Raaj⁷²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: D Tudhope| T: Y Barberot| OR: 110| D

28/1

Useful form, back on turf and improved to win 8-runner Prix Djebel at Deauville (7f) last time by neck from Pimento, leading over 1f out. This demands another jolt of progress.

Form: 21-41

Creative Force³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: James Doyle| T: C Appleby| OR: 110

5/1

Flopped in the Coventry after taking debut win but given rest of the season off and has flourished as a 3-y-o, completing hat-trick (all 6f) in listed company at Newbury. Bred to stay 7f.

Form: 10-111

(6)

Fundamental³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: L Dettori| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 100| D

16/1

Very useful form when winning twice on Chelmsford's polytrack. Similar level when fifth in the Greenham and runner-up in listed company at Newmarket. This looks a tall order.

Form: 321-152

(16)

Great King¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian| OR: 88| BF| D

100/1

Had a breathing operation after two-race juvenile campaign and much-improved form when landing a maiden at Newcastle in April. Unable to build on that in handicaps and looks out of his depth.

Form: 32-125

(18)

Khartoum³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 104| D

17/2

Dropped away in the Craven on reappearance but a different proposition eased in class when a decisive winner of a 1m handicap at Naas last month. Good looker who can progress for top yard.

Form: 31-01

(14)

Legion Of Honour⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 104| D

25/1

Confirmed turf debut promise when landing odds in Newcastle novice in November. Shaped very well when ½-length second to Megallan in listed race back there before finding the 2000 Guineas too much.

Form: 21-29

(13)

Mehmento¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 108| D

22/1

Won first 2 starts at Southwell this winter and smart form when excellent second in the Greenham at Newbury. 1m too much of a test sent to Longchamp and made all back over 7f at listed level latest.

Form: 11201

(1)

Mutasaabeq⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Jim Crowley| T: C Hills| OR: 108| D

13/2

Raced exclusively at Newmarket, successful sole 2-y-o start and looked at top prospect when routing 3 rivals in a good time on reappearance. Mid-field in the 2000 Guineas and worth another chance.

Form: 1-17

(10)

Nando Parrado³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 106| C

33/1

Surprise winner of the Coventry a year ago before second twice in Group 1 company in France. Respectable fourth in 7f Greenham on return but didn't build on that upped to 1m at Sandown.

Form: 5122-44

(15)

Naval Crown⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 111| D

5/1

Improved when readily making all in 1m listed race at Meydan in February. Better form in defeat after, exceeding expectations when fourth from the front in the 2000 Guineas.

Form: 33-3124

(11)

Rhythm Master⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: P J McDonald| T: R A Fahey| OR: 108

40/1

Impressive debut winner at Haydock (6f) in July and stepped up markedly to finished placed in Morny/Mill Reef thereafter. Sixth in the Greenham on return and needs to take a big step forward.

Form: 133-6

(3)

Spycatcher³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 101

66/1

Shaped well more than once as a juvenile and completed a simple task with the minimum of fuss on reappearance at Pontefract. Good placed efforts in better company since and worth another shot at 7f.

Form: 282-132

(9)

Storm Damage¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: S bin Suroor| D

10/1

Out of a smart mare and looked well-above average when a ready winner of a 7f novice at Kempton on debut. This is a big step up 17 days on but he's totally unexposed.

Form: 1

(2)

Tactical³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 112| BF| C| D

12/1

Smart juvenile, winning Windsor Castle and a Group 2 at Newmarket before form levelled off. Better than ever when making winning return in the Free Handicap and drop to 6f looked against him latest.

Form: 1540-13

(5)

Bellosa³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: R Kingscote| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 101| D

11/1

Landed a gamble when ready all-the-way winner of a Newmarket maiden (7f) and took step up to listed company in her stride over same C&D. Dominating this field a different ask but she's promising.

Form: 11

(8)

Light Refrain²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 106

18/1

Good test at 6f suited her when well prepared to land 6f listed race in the mud at Nottingham last month. Sound fourth in a better race a fortnight later and looks ready for another shot at 7f.

Form: 4212-14

(12)

Vadream⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J P Spencer| T: C Fellowes| OR: 103

28/1

Looked good when making a winning start with plenty in hand at Newcastle in November. Travelled with purpose both outings in Group company this year and drop to 7f looks a wise move at this stage.

Form: 1-36

Forecasts

Creative Force (5/1), Naval Crown (5/1), Mutasaabeq (13/2), Khartoum (17/2), Storm Damage (10/1), Bellosa (11/1), Tactical (12/1), Fundamental (16/1), Light Refrain (18/1), New Mandate (20/1), Ace Aussie (20/1), Mehmento (22/1), Legion Of Honour (25/1), Vadream (28/1), Fast Raaj (28/1), Nando Parrado (33/1), Rhythm Master (40/1), Spycatcher (66/1), Great King (100/1)

MUTASAABEQ was found wanting for know-how having been supplemented for the 2000 Guineas but his reputation pretty much remains intact and a well-run race over 7f looks the ideal set-up for him to regain the winning thread. Conversely, form-choice Creative Force steps up in trip but he's certainly bred to stay this far and is a big threat, along with Naval Crown.
