El Burhan⁴⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: Jim Crowley| T: G Boughey| D

8/13

6/4, confirmed debut promise when won 9-runner minor event at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) just under 6 weeks ago, benefiting from the step up in trip to lead approaching final 1f. Carries a penalty but seems sure to progress further.

Divine Legacy

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Rowan Scott| T: E Bethell

16/1

Foaled April 20. Siyouni colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 1½m Silver Knott. Catches the eye on pedigree and one to keep a close eye on.

50/1

11/1, failed to progress from debut when third of 6 in minor event at Nottingham (6.1f, good) just over 3 weeks ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Back up in trip.

Form: 63

Footwork¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: S De Sousa| T: C Johnston

4/1

3/1, showed plenty to work on when 2¼ lengths second of 7 to Pap's Turf in minor event at this C&D (good to soft) on debut 18 days ago. Should improve, so fancied to go close.

Form: 2

200/1

33/1, offered little when last of 9 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) on debut just under 3 weeks ago, dropping away over 1f out.

9/1

Offered little when ninth of 11 in minor event (33/1) at Newbury (6.5f, good to firm) on debut 23 days ago. Looks one for the longer term.

Form: 9

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby

Forecasts

El Burhan (8/13), Footwork (4/1), Pap's Turf (13/2), New Bombay (9/1), Divine Legacy (16/1), Knights Gold (25/1), Sanbona (33/1), Dr T H G (50/1), Fuel The Fire (200/1), Two Man Job (200/1)

EL BURHAN relished the extra distance when getting off the mark at Yarmouth just under 6 weeks ago and with further progress on the cards, George Boughey's colt is taken to follow up at the expense of Footwoork, who was a place behind Pap's Turf on debut but is expected to improve past that rival here. Divine Legacy catches the eye on pedigree, so he completes the shortlist.
