In depth
Formwatch
Acorazado (IRE) Decent debut effort when third over Pic Up Sticks over six furlongs at York earlier in the month on soft ground; drop in trip here should not inconvenience him.
Blueberry Rhyme Well beaten in valuable sales race over six furlongs at Newmarket last time; better effort in nursery over five furlongs at HQ previously. Proven on soft ground and at the minimum so has to be respected
Galaxy Thunderbird Claims on third at Lingfield in August but unproven on anything softer than good; not certain to go on the ground.
Maconachie Improved effort (after a lay-off) when fourth to Danemare at Windsor on heavy ground three weeks ago; drop in trip not certain to suit.
Night Cap (IRE) Disappointed on both starts so far (both over six furlongs); drop to the minimum hay help.
Tourvel Bahamian Bounty colt; stable not known for their ability to ready a juvenile newcomer.
White Cliffs Well beaten on both starts to date, including under testing conditions at Lingfield on second outing; difficult to recommend.
Homely Sort (IRE) String of duck's eggs next to her name; likely to add to the "0" tally again.
Kittylee Bal Habour filly; makes limited appeal on breeding.
Princess Grace No real sign of encouragement from two outings so far.
Zarconia (IRE) American bred filly by Inzar; likely to want faster ground to show her best form.
