Selected odds by:

(5)

Craven

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey

11/2

Foaled March 4. 27,000 gns yearling, Havana Gold colt. Half-brother to 1¼m winner Freshwater Cliffs. Bred for further, but still worthy of a market check.

Form:

(8)

Drafted¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: P J McDonald| T: James Horton

7/1

Six-figure yearling who left the impression that he'd learn plenty from his encouraging debut at York 16 days ago. Stall 8 isn't ideal, but he's a big player nonetheless.

Form: 4

Frank Ross Is Out

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Barry McHugh| T: R A Fahey

8/1

Foaled January 29. Pastoral Pursuits colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Big Ace and ungenuine 1m-1¼m winner Little Ted. Dam, maiden (stayed 1m), half-sister to useful 5f-7f winner Inhalation.

Form:

I Still Have Faith³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: D Allan| T: Ian Williams

20/1

Expert Eye colt who showed a bit when sixth under a considerate ride at Leicester in April. Should improve from that now upped in trip, so not completely discounted.

Form: 6

(7)

Self Praise²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: S Donohoe| T: H Palmer

11/2

Twilight Son colt who benefited from his initial experience when runner-up at this course 23 days ago. That form has been boosted three times since, so he may be able to open his account at the third attempt.

Form: 42

(4)

Pink Stripes

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Harrison Shaw| T: L Williamson

66/1

Foaled February 12. Heeraat filly. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to useful US winner up to 8.5f (including minor stakes at 2 yrs) Carving. Doesn't make much appeal on paper.

Form:

(3)

Revisit

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Hannon

7/2

Foaled March 13. Invincible Spirit filly. Dam, useful French 7f winner, closely related to high-class 1m-1¼m winner Capponi, runner-up in Dubai World Cup.

Form:

(6)

Zephina⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: George Downing| T: P D Evans

5/2

Fair maiden who has proved quite consistent to date but he's quite well established already, and he looks vulnerable.

Forecasts

Zephina (5/2), Revisit (7/2), Craven (11/2), Self Praise (11/2), Drafted (7/1), Frank Ross Is Out (8/1), Urban Sprawl (14/1), Guiteau (20/1), I Still Have Faith (20/1), Pink Stripes (66/1)

SELF PRAISE was a good second in a good maiden at this track last time and, with another step forward likely, he gets the nod ahead of Drafted, who should have learned plenty from his initial experience. Revisit is the pick of the newcomers.
