Force And Valour⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: George Scott| D

11/2

Confirmed debut promise in fairly straightforward fashion when making all in Thirsk maiden last week. More needed here but should go on improving for a while yet (holds a Group 2 entry).

Form: 31

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Connor Murtagh| T: R A Fahey| OR: 84| D

15/2

Progressive sort, following up maiden win in a Ripon nursery 2 weeks ago. Can make presence felt once again.

Form: 711

Pont Neuf³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 86

16/1

Won 5f novices at Kempton (AW) and Salisbury (heavy) on first 2 starts but limitations exposed in better company since.

Form: 1100

Rogue Bullet^p1³⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Jack Jones| OR: 73

28/1

Shaping up quite well and left the strong impression he should be suited by at least 6f when fourth of 11 in maiden (18/1) at Yarmouth (5.2f, good) 38 days ago. Plenty to find here, however. Headgear on.

Form: 544

Rotation³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Mia Nicholls| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 68| D

66/1

Narrow winner of a seller (20/1) at Leicester (6f, good) but struggled on nursery bow at Lingfield since. Readily passed over.

Form: 018

(2)

Brian²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: L P Keniry| T: S Kirk| OR: 93| D

11/4

Has improved with each start so far, capitalising on the drop in grade in emphatic fashion in 11-runner novice at Newbury (6f). Ran as well as could have been expected in listed race at Ascot since and should make much more of an impact here.

Form: 42314

Ghostman²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: N Callan| T: Dylan Cunha

33/1

Showed more than first time up when fifth of 13 in novice at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) 25 days ago but still very hard to make a case for.

Form: 65

Miss Collada²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| OR: 78

10/1

Li Ban¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: D Egan| T: Raphael Freire| OR: 88| D

15/8

Big improvement when winning 9-runner novice at Thirsk (6f, good) and backed that up when third of 21 in valuable sales race at Naas. Looks the one to beat on these terms.

Form: 542313

Jagetme¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: Aidan Keeley| T: D M Loughnane

200/1

Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 6 in novice (28/1) at Thirsk (5f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 04

Kilteel²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: Morgan Cole| T: E A L Dunlop

200/1

Well held both starts. No appeal.

Ruby's Profit⁶⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: Gina Mangan| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 75

16/1

Didn't cost much at the sales but made a good start to career when readily winning 7-runner maiden at Kempton (5f). However, struggled upped in class on the turf since and others preferred.

Form: 1060
