Military Leader (5/4), Placo (7/4), Gracious Leader (9/2), Point Sur (11/2), Francisco (8/1), Christian David (18/1), Sons And Lovers (33/1), Mulciber (100/1), Aces High (125/1)

Verdict

Charlie Appleby hasn't been as prolific with his juveniles this term but 1,500,000 gns yearling MILITARY LEADER ticks plenty of the right boxes so can come out on top with the booking of Ryan Moore catching the eye. Placo produced a promising effort when fourth at Leicester last month, so he may emerge as the main danger, with Point Sur and Gracious Leader another pair of newcomers needing close attention.

  1. MILITARY LEADER
