Tie Em Up Tel²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: J F Egan| T: P D Evans| OR: 67

5/4

Produced his best effort to land a Windsor seller by 4L. Appears to handle any going and has proven to be a rare recent winner for a yard that are still struggling for form.

Form: 7531

(10)

Free Spirited²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey

7/1

Dam won five races for this yard and was best with plenty of give so current unsettled weather should not be an issue. Dropped in class following two unconvincing efforts and worth checking in the market.

Form: 87

(5)

Placebo Effect²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: A Mullen| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 56

14/1

Best effort when getting the run of the race at Redcar and was put firmly in his place last time. Has a stiff task at these weights.

Form: 838

(1)

Devil Or Angel⁴⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: L Morris| T: W G M Turner

9/1

Signs of ability on both starts to date in better company than this. Stable took this in 2013 and the booking of a strong rider suggests she is one to note in pre-race trading.

Form: 95

(8)

Tea Rattle⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: D Allan| T: S Dixon

10/1

Looked green on Windsor debut when sent off at 100/1. Dropped in grade but may need even more time.

Form: 8

(6)

Just For The Craic¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 61

9/2

Has looked something of a short runner lately. Although this quick 5f will help the forecast softer ground probably makes his task harder.

Form: 73549

Little Monkey^p⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain

40/1

Had cheekpieces for Beverley debut when finishing last of eleven. Hard to see where the necessary improvement may come from.

Form: 0

(2)

Sovereign Katie²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Joe Doyle| T: Ollie Pears

33/1

Bought for £10,000 and half-sister to three winners including two in Italy. One of two in the race for a yard who have gone 10 months without a juvenile winner. Only beat one home on debut and hard to see her figuring on these terms.

Form: 0

(4)

Kikini Bamalaam⁴⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Connor Beasley| T: K Dalgleish

16/1

In capable hands but has shown only modest form to date in three slowly run races. Best effort came when conditions were not as quick and that would be the most positive factor in assessing her chances.

Form: 057

(7)

Miss Mazzie²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: Nathan Evans⁽³⁾| T: M & D Easterby

40/1

800 gns purchase who has struggled to make an impact in either start. Connections earn her some respect but hard to fancy on what she has shown so far.

Form: 80

Forecasts

Tie Em Up Tel (5/4), Just For The Craic (9/2), Free Spirited (7/1), Devil Or Angel (9/1), Tea Rattle (10/1), Placebo Effect (14/1), Kikini Bamalaam (16/1), Sovereign Katie (33/1), Miss Mazzie (40/1), Little Monkey (40/1)

A modest bunch line up for this with TIE EM UP TEL making most appeal having landed a seller last time in the style of a horse who is better than that grade. He meets a bunch of plating class youngsters and his previous second at Goodwood shows he handles give underfoot. Devil Or Angel represents a trainer that can get a juvenile ready in this standard of race and the jockey booking signals intent. Just For The Craic and Kikini Bamalaam are nothing special but may prove the pick of the rest.
