6/1 |
Arctic Grey
Sent off a weak 14-1 shot for his Southwell debut (1m, AW) a fortnight ago, but showed a fine attitude to get the better of a 99-rated rival by a neck; there has to be some doubt as to whether his rival ran anywhere near his mark, but it was still a fine effort first time out and he remains open to further improvement.

Sallaal
Bred in the purple and looked a nice prospect when making a winning debut at Yarmouth (7f, soft) last October (form worked out well), but proved disappointing when beaten 12l into fifth of eight in a Newmarket Listed contest (1m1f, good to soft) last month; needs to settle better than he did there but this triple Group 1 entered colt retains plenty of potential.

Capla Daviekins
22-1 when well beaten in his only start for Michael and David Easterby at Pontefract (6f, good) last summer; looks completely out of his depth on stable debut after 289 days off.

College Fund
170,000euros yearling; 11-1 when third of 12 on his Newcastle debut (7f, AW) in March (fourth has won since); that was a promising start, but he looks to face a stiff task against the two previous winners.

Obito
150,000gns breeze-up purchase; showed promise when fifth of 12 (4l behind College Fund) on his Newcastle debut (7f, AW) in March and when second of five at Redcar (1m, good to firm) 13 days ago; should win races, but perhaps not this one.
