Yousini²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| D

6/5

Winner on debut at Hamilton (5f, good/firm) on his debut he did well to overcome some residual greenness to beat three more experienced runners who filled the places. The form has been franked by the win of the fifth and he looks sure to progress.

Form: 1

Rockin Roy⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: D Tudhope| T: A Watson| BF| D

9/5

Made a winning debut at Beverley (won with a bit to spare) and looked set to progress. Failed to do so on his second start though at Ripon (stumbled start) when favourite and worth another chance to prove that running all wrong.

Form: 12

(8)

Eljayeff

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D Nolan| T: R A Fahey

16/1

Trainer needs no introduction with his juveniles and has set a good pace in this discipline already. Plenty of speed in the pedigree and deserves respect from this yard on debut; worth noting in the market.

Form:

(6)

Ramsbottom

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P Mulrennan| T: M Dods

40/1

Bred to be sharp and closely related to some of the owners other sharp sprinters. Yard are a little quiet at the moment though (1/23 last 14 days) and are 0/4 with their juveniles this year; market support needed to be of interest.

Form:

(7)

Arletta Star

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby

20/1

Pedigree makes some appeal on paper but the yard's two-year-olds are usually better for the run in the main. Cost £28,000 at a recent breeze-up sale and a half-sister to a couple of winners.

Form:

(5)

Lorton³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: P Hanagan| T: Miss J A Camacho

11/2

One of three runners in the field that have had experience she was handled with care on her debut at Thirsk (5f, good) getting the hang of things late on. Certainly not given a hard race and the third won next time out; more to come.

Form: 5

(2)

Spirit Of Opal

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Phil Dennis⁽³⁾| T: J R Weymes

200/1

Would be a rare juvenile winner for the yard (0/20 past five years) with their first runner of this type this season. First foal out of a dam who was a 5f winner and may be able to show more with this experience tucked away.

Forecasts

Yousini (6/5), Rockin Roy (9/5), Lorton (11/2), Eljayeff (16/1), Barasti Dancer (16/1), Arletta Star (20/1), Ramsbottom (40/1), Spirit Of Opal (200/1)

It may well pay to give ROCKIN ROY another chance here with his debut win having a solid look about it. He didn’t build on that last time but a stumble just after the start didn’t help and he’s from a yard that do well with their juveniles. Yousini won well on debut and should be respected although his penalty gives him a tough task. It would be no surprise to see Lorton step forward from her debut with Eljayeff a newcomer to watch in the market.
