Selected odds by:
Smart effort to win Craven on reappearance. Even better form when third in the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket and short-head second to stablemate Rosallion in the Irish 2000 Guineas. River Tiber was 1¼ lengths behind in third at the Curragh but is 3 lb better off with him this time. Bold show likely.
|
Very useful colt who bagged a 7f listed race at Newmarket last month. Will need to step up a fair bit on that form if he's to follow up here.
|
Useful effort to win a 1m Naas handicap last month but he takes a big jump in class here.
|
Fairly useful form when placed in novices over C&D (for Peter Chapple-Hyam) and at York (1m) 8 months apart. Has the potential for better again but a big jolt of improvement required to get heavily involved here.
|
Placed for the third time in Group company at Newmarket when 3½ lengths second to Haatem in the 1m Craven on reappearance. Beaten only 1¾ lengths when seventh of 13 to Metropolitan in French 2000 Guineas at Longchamp since. Each-way shout.
|
AW novice winner last summer and returned to finish a much-improved second in the Greenham at Newbury (7f, good) in April. Might have found the run coming too soon when well held in 6f Group 3 here since.
|
Won the Group 3 Acomb at York last August but all of a sudden has a bit to prove having failed to beat a rival in 2 outings since, latterly a 7f Haydock listed race on reappearance 6 weeks ago. Has had wind surgery since then.
|
Bred in the purple and has made a highly-promising start to his career, following a 7f Newmarket maiden win with a good 3¾ lengths second of 6 to Almaqam in Heron at Sandown (1m, soft). The way he travelled at Sandown suggests the drop back to 7f could be a good move. Capable of better again.
|
Fairly useful colt who gained an overdue first success in 7f Fairyhouse maiden 15 days ago. Major surprise were he to follow up here, though.
|
Smart at 2, including an AW listed win and good 1½ lengths second of 11 to stablemate Unquestionable in Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf at Santa Anita (1m, firm). Well behind Haatem and River Tiber in Irish 2000 Guineas on reappearance but he might have needed that first outing for 7 months.
|
Won a valuable sales race at 2. Left his reappearance at Newmarket well behind when short-head second to Evade in 7f Epsom listed race 3 weeks ago. More will be needed here.
|
Runner-up to subsequent Group 1 winners Ancient Wisdom and Vandeek on both starts at 2 and easy winner of a Thirsk novice (7f, heavy) and Chester handicap (7.5f, good) this spring. Looks good enough to make his presence felt at pattern level.
|
Impressive winner of 7f novices at Southwell on first 2 starts. Pulled hard when well beaten in the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket but he's highly regarded by his leading stable and retains potential now back at 7f.
|
Smart at 2, including a win in the Coventry at this meeting. Showed he's trained on well when 1¼ lengths third of 8 to Rosallion in Irish 2000 Guineas at the Curragh (1m, good) on reappearance. Haatem was ahead in second on that occasion but he's 3lb better off with Richard Hannon's charge now.
|
Useful colt. Creditable fourth in 7f Greenham on Newbury reappearance and ruined his chance by hanging left on the turn at Sandown since. Haatem looks very much the stable first string.
|
Won maiden/listed before 2¼ lengths second to Vandeek in Middle Park (6f) on final 2-y-o start. Creditable 6¾ lengths seventh to Notable Speech in 2000 Guineas at Newmarket (1m, good) on reappearance. Haatem holds him on that form but the Ralph Beckett yard is in better form now than it was then.
|
Won all 3 starts as a juvenile, notably a French listed. Showed he's trained on well when second in the Greenham on reappearance but he needs to shrug off a disappointing effort at Epsom since.
|
Useful filly, finishing an excellent 1½ lengths second of 11 to Porta Fortuna in Cheveley Park at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) on final 2-y-o start. Too free when last of 13 in Irish 1000 Guineas on reappearance. Hard to know what to expect after that.
|
Useful effort to win a heavy-ground listed race in Milan last month but a much bigger performance will be needed to even reach the frame here.

On 3 lb better terms RIVER TIBER is taken to turn around Irish 2000 Guineas form with Haatem, particularly as it's possible Aidan O'Brien's colt will come on for that reappearance. Task Force, Never So Brave and Kikkuli can fight it out for minor money in a strong renewal of this Group 3.
