5/4

Yard are already off the mark with their juveniles and this Kodiac colt looks to have a decent pedigree having cost £50,000 as a yearling.

Ventura Knight

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston

1/1

Sire had his first winner on the surface recently and this second foal is a half-brother to winner up to 7f Smart Mover (by Fast Company). Yard got off to a really quick start with juveniles last year but are yet to have a two-year-old runner as yet although they did win this in 2013 with the favourite.

Glen Valley

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: P Makin| T: K Dalgleish

10/1

First foal by Society Rock who cost £10,000 as a yearling. Yard's first juvenile of the season was well fancied at Doncaster in a division of the Brocklesby.

Form: 40

Kheleyf's Girl

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: J F Egan| T: P D Evans

12/1

Second runner in this for the yard and hard to know on jockey bookings which is the more favoured. Only cost a £1,000 as a yearling and may need a little further than this 5f on pedigree.

With nothing to go on here bar trainers records with juveniles and pedigrees and using those as a guide it’s always hard to leave a Fahey runner out of the equation and his JASI is much respected here. Bothe Mark Johnston and Bill Turner have won this race before and they are represented here by Ventura Knight and Devil Or Angel. Glen Valley can’t be left out of the picture either given her connections.
