7/4
Back from 2 months off (gelded since last start) when close second of 17 in nursery at York (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago, closing all way to line. Likely more to come yet and holds strong claims.

Horse silk
20/1
Built on encouraging debut effort when readily taking 7-runner novice at Ffos Las (7.4f, heavy) 15 days ago. Asked a much bigger question now but he's going the right way.

9/1
Fairly-useful colt who took advantage of a good opportunity when winning 4-runner novice at this course (8f, firm) 29 days ago, kept up to work. More on plate here, though, and others may have more potential.

12/1
Much improved from debut when winning 16-runner novice at Newbury (7f) in July and had more in hand then margin suggests when following up at Ripon (8f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Faces stiffer test here but remains open to improvement.

16/5
Improved significantly from winning debut when ½-length second of 3 in listed race at Salisbury (8f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Likely more to come yet and is not taken lightly.

Horse silk
15/2
Looked potentially useful when making a winning start in 10-runner maiden at Ffos Las (7.4f, soft, 7/1) 32 days ago. Looks sure to progress and must enter calculations.

6/1
Left debut effort well behind when landing 7-runner novice at Newmarket (7f, good, 11/2) 15 days ago, well on top finish. Entitled to take on better company now and warrants respect.

Age: 2|  Weight: 8-13| J: R Coakley| T: E Walker| D
40/1
Made an encouraging start to her career at Newbury in July and built on that when narrowly winning Salisbury novice (8f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Likely to progress further but others hold greater appeal.

Forecasts

Age Of Gold (7/4), Luther (16/5), The Lost King (6/1), Stark Warning (15/2), Hawksbill (9/1), Linwood (12/1), Eternal Elixir (20/1), Qilin Queen (40/1)

Verdict

AGE OF GOLD found only another progressive sort too good when runner-up in a competitive York nursery last month and remains with potential. He can land the spoils. A number of his rivals are also open to improvement, including Luther and Stark Warning, who are feared most.
