An interesting maiden. Gorey Gold should be involved but the Newbury race SECRET SANTA contested last time is working out really well, with three winners and two seconds from six subsequent starters, all of them having finished behind him that day. Proof is one of a few others entitled to consideration.[Richard Russell]

24,000gns yearling by Ardad; fifth foal; half-brother to two winners including Percy's Lad (7.5f/1m including 2yo September debut for this yard; RPR 105); dam unraced half-sister to 7f winner/Ribblesdale second Eldalil; holds some big sales race entries; stable can ready one but likely holds better prospects with Coyy unlikes the market suggests otherwise.
Outpaced but it was a respectable debut when fifth of nine at Salisbury (5f, good to firm; Proof second) 13 days ago; needs more but he's open to improvement.
28,000euros yearling by Saxon Warrior; first foal; dam 7f winner (RPR 78), half-sister to winners Kings Joy (1m 2yo December debut) and Chortal (2m1f hurdle); stable's juveniles usually improve for their debuts but he's well worth a market check.
Half-brother to connections' prolific Spoof and he made a good introduction when second at Salisbury (5f, good to firm; Army Bugler fifth) 13 days ago; not far behind on the figures and he's open to progress.
Out of a Queen Mary winner for his connections; showed ability when fourth at Goodwood (5f; has produced winners) on debut and stepped up on that when third at Newbury (6f, also good) three weeks ago; latter race is working out strongly and he holds clear claims.
Promising debut when fourth at Newbury (5f, good) but he was well below that form at Leicester two weeks later; that was a useful maiden, however, and he was back on track when tongue tied and third at Windsor (6f, good to firm; Gorey Gold 1l behind) last time; narrowly sets the standard.
Already gelded son of Land Force; March (second) foal; dam multiple 5.7f winner (RPR 79), closely related to 5f/6f winner Speed Dial Baileys, half-sister to useful 5f-7f winner Rock On Baileys, out of 5f winner; bred to be speedy but yard probably holds better prospects with Army Bugler.
Really encouraging start when fifth of 12 at Windsor (6f, good to firm; Coyy 1l ahead) 18 days ago; no surprise if he improved past that rival despite a wide stall.
1,000gns yearling; March (first) foal; dam 6f winner (including AW 2yo; RPR 74), half-sister to 6f-1m winner The Bullion Bomber; market check advised on debut.
Hampered early then ran green when 33-1 here (5f, good to firm) last month but she rallied to finish a clear third of nine behind the subsequent National Stakes winner; nowhere near that next time over 6f (AW) but that initial run makes her of interest.
22,000euros yearling by Phoenix Of Spain; March (fifth) foal; half-sister to winners Specialmente (French/Hong Kong 5f-7f including August 2yo debut/AW; RPR 93) and Lady Maeve (Canadian 7f-8.5f turf/AW); dam unplaced 6f-1m2f (65), half-sister to 7f Group 3 winner Nargys; stable have winning newcomers and she's worth a market check.
