9/4

Promising sort. 13/2, sixth of 8 in novice at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) on debut in May for Roger Varian. Sold for 42,000gns in October. Joined a very good yard and market confidence would look significant.

Sharp Call

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby

50/1

£10,500 Soldier's Call filly. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to 6f/7f winner Merlin and 1¼m-11f winner Wink of An Eye (both useful) out of useful 1¼m winner Momentary. Best watched unless the betting hints otherwise.

(4)

Toughly

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Nicola Currie| T: Ollie Sangster

16/1

Mehmas half-sister to 7f winner Ararat. Stable no stranger to first-time-out success and interesting to see what the betting makes of her.

Forecasts

Megaphone (11/4), Line Of Force (7/2), Midnight City (7/2), Desert Champion (5/1), Thunder Earthlight (8/1), Toughly (12/1), Goldrush Glory (12/1), Sharp Call (33/1), Echo Of Glory (50/1), Lily's Symphony (100/1)

MEGAPHONE hasn't been seen since his debut in May but hinted at promise on that occasion and can strike for new trainer George Boughey. Desert Champion is another likely to improve for his first run and might provide the main threat ahead of more-established pair Line of Force and Midnight City.
