The market should be revealing regarding the newcomers Kurious George, Blue Lancero and the well-bred R P McMurphy (second choice), but NAKEEB sets a useful standard having been placed in two Newmarket maidens.[David Bellingham]

Half-brother to a 7f-1m2f Flat (including AW 2yo; RPR 92) and 2m hurdle winner Time Interval; dam 1m3f AW winner (82), closely related to 15.5f Group 2 winner Kite Wood and Group-placed 1m1f/1m4f winner Odeon; hooded for this belated debut, but stable can get once ready first time so worth a glance in the market.
25-1 when a promising fifth of 12 on his Newmarket debut (7f, good) just over a year ago when trained by Jane Chapple-Hyam (form worked out very well), but not seen since; gelded in the meantime and worth a market check on his return/stable debut.
78,000gns yearling; half-brother to 7f AW 2yo winner Doitforandrew (RPR 95); dam unplaced 1m (48), half-sister to 6f 2yo Group 3 winner Distinctive and useful 5f winner Blue Aegean; something to like on breeding, but the stable appears to hold stronger claims with the experienced Nakeeb.
Sent off a weak 25-1 shot when seventh of 11 on his Newmarket debut (7f, good) last month, not appearing to handle the track and finishing around 7l behind Nakeeb; should improve but will need to; tongue-tie now given a go.
16,000euros yearling; first foal; dam placed 8.5f-1m2f in France, sister to French 1m2f-1m4f winner Calliope, out of 1m/10.4f winner; already gelded and probably only of interest if backed.
230,000gns yearling; placed in both Newmarket maidens, the latest when second of 11 (7f, good) 16 days ago; sets a useful standard and this looks a good opportunity.
Half-brother to winners Danzeno (5f/6f including 2yo/Group 3; RPR 117), Demora (5f including Listed; 109), Dansepo (7f; 61) and Dancer Kech (Moroccan 5.5f); unraced dam out of 6f winner; nicely bred and the stable does have the occasional winning newcomer; worth a market check.
