Well held in both runs so far, the latest here over 6f. Has only raced on good to firm, so has it to prove in these conditions and looks more likely to show more when he has a handicap mark.
Finished ahead of Barney Bullet when fourth at Beverley (5f, good to firm) on debut. Tried to make all over 6f at Carlisle (good to soft) last time, but didn't quite get home. Softer conditions forecast again today, but the drop in trip should help.
Returns for his third successive race here, although this time dropped to the minimum trip after being beaten 6L and then 5L over 6f. The better of those was on debut (good to soft), so he should be able to handle conditions and could go well.
Outperformed his 66-1 SP on debut at Thirsk (5f, good to soft) and built on that when a much shorter 3-1 last time, finishing a 2¾L runner-up (5f, good to firm). Has to prove himself on genuine soft ground, but otherwise looks a threat to all.
800 gns yearling. First foal of an unplaced 6f-1m1f mare, who is a half-sister to 7f-1m winner Cara's Request and 1m2f/2m winner Beltor. Unlikely to be fully tuned up on debut and best watched on this occasion.
Dam placed over 5f at two and is a full-sister to 5f two-year-old Group 3/7f Group 2 winner Finjaan, and a half-sister to 5f winner Sandfrankskipsgo, out of 6f juvenile winner. Stable 1-9 with turf juveniles this season. Market check suggested.
Improving steadily with each run and although beaten only 1½L at Beverley a couple of starts ago, she bettered that when a 3¼L third at Ripon last time. This is the slowest ground she has raced on, but going the right way and a leading player today.
Best effort so far was on her second start at Nottingham (5f), which came on soft ground. Behind a couple of these when keen and then hanging up the Beverley hill last time. Soft ground and a flat track could see a much improved effort today.
€20.000 yearling. Half-sister to winners Pitlochry (6f, inc at two), The Dark Wizard (5f-6f), Vallado (6f at two) and Anythingknappen (1m at two). Dam won over 7f. The sort of pedigree that suggests that she could make a good debut.
0-6, making the frame just once at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) in June. Switches back to this type of race after three handicaps defeats, two of them sizeable ones, and has plenty to find now dropped in trip.
Forecasts
Kyllachy Dragon (5/2), Dandy's Beano (3/1), Biddy Brady (4/1), Hedonism (7/1), Arctic Treasure (8/1), Bonanza Bowls (16/1), Warrior's Valley (25/1), Barney Bullet (40/1), Monkey Magic (40/1), Gleaming Sun (100/1)
Not a strong contest and Hedonism has a likeable pedigree, including plenty of juvenile success, so she may be able to make a significant impact. However, DANDY'S BEANO showed a fair degree of promise on soft ground earlier in the season and she is taken to bounce back from a dismal effort last time and score. Biddy Brady is likely to be on the premises along with Kyllachy Dragon and Arctic Treasure.
