1/2

By Dark Angel and out of a dam who a juvenile winner. Stable's juveniles are going well and it will be no surprise if he improved significantly for his debut on desperate ground. Well-backed that day and he showed plenty of pace.

Form: 3

Josiebond¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Phil Dennis⁽³⁾| T: Rebecca Bastiman

12/1

Has a speedy pedigree and a her sire liked give underfoot. Big run on debut when conditions were testing and stable have had a good week. Question now as to whether she can build on that with conditions forecast to be quicker.

Forecasts

Deep Intrigue (1/2), Moojim (7/1), Ahlan Bil Emarati (15/2), Josiebond (12/1), Nicki's Angel (14/1), Oxygenic (28/1), Don't Tell Dandy (50/1)

DEEP INTRIGUE was heavily supported ahead of his debut when showing plenty of speed before weakening in the heavy ground. Josiebond outran her odds on her debut but she is bred to want softer ground and may need a stiffer track than this. Ahlan Bil Emarati is speedily bred and comes from a yard that do well here with their juveniles. Nicki's Angel is another newcomer to consider whilst Moojim will need to improve on his initial run.
