Archie's Dream²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan

14/1

Foaled February 28. Kameko gelding. 6/1, ran to a fair level when third of 8 in maiden at Catterick (7f, good to firm) on debut 24 days ago, keeping on from 2f out. Longer trip here promises to suit on that evidence and he's open to improvement.

Form: 3

Divine Legacy⁵⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: E Bethell

6/1

Siyouni colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 1½m Silver Knott. Missed break/off bridle long way out but made steady progress to take fourth on debut in a Beverley novice (7.4f) on debut 55 days ago. In good hands and he's another open to improvement.

Form: 4

Gentle Warrior¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁵⁾| T: K R Burke

80/1

Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in maiden (66/1) at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 16 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Probably one for the longer term.

Form: 67

(3)

Gungnir¹⁶

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

200/1

Cheap purchase who hasn't offered a great deal in pair of maidens at around 7f in recent weeks. Likely type for low-grade nurseries on the back of this.

Form: 78

(7)

Hot Dancer²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: James Doyle| T: C Johnston

3/1

£50,000 2-y-o, Too Darn Hot colt. Made a promising start when second of 5 in maiden at Chester (7.6f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Likely to improve and he's one to consider.

Form: 2

Moonjid²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: M P Tregoning

9/4

90,000 gns foal, Mohaather colt. Improved on a low-key debut display when fourth of 11 in maiden at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) 27 days ago. This rates less demanding down in class and this well-bred sort is fancied to play a part.

Form: 04

(2)

Play Me

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: P Cosgrave| T: G Boughey

7/2

Foaled March 2. 75,000 gns yearling, Too Darn Hot colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart winner up to 1m Point Lynas and winner up to 1m Arbaawi. Dam maiden (stayed 1m). Appeals on paper and worth a second look on debut.

Tuscan Hills

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: O J Orr| T: Raphael Freire

7/1

Foaled May 26. €100,000 yearling, Night of Thunder colt. Half-brother to 2 winners abroad by Tamayuz, including Italian 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Torpedo Blu. Dam unraced out of Oaks winner Eswarah. Yard introduced an impressive winning newcomer at Redcar last month and he's of interest on debut.

Forecasts

Moonjid (9/4), Hot Dancer (3/1), Play Me (7/2), Divine Legacy (6/1), Tuscan Hills (7/1), Archie's Dream (14/1), Smithy (14/1), Gentle Warrior (80/1), Gungnir (200/1)

HOT DANCER produced a promising first effort when second in a small-field Chester maiden 26 days ago and, open to improvement, he can build on that display and make a bold bid. Moonjid stepped up on his debut form when fourth in a class 2 maiden at Goodwood and he's feared. Newcomers Tuscan Hills and Play Me are others to note.
