Alfred Boucher¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Fran Berry| T: H Candy

11/4

Promise over C&D in June and stepped up on that effort following a break when second of 12 at Newbury last month. Progressing well and is a leading contender.

Form: 42

(3)

Aluqair

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S De Sousa| T: S & E Crisford

6/1

Kodiac colt who cost £48,000 this year and whose dam won over 1m2f. Stable going really well and he is well worth noting on debut as he represents last year's winning combination.

(5)

Clipsham Tiger⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby

150/1

Has beaten only one rival in races over 5f at Sandown and this track. Should do better in time, probably when competing in handicaps.

Form: 00

(4)

Midnight In Havana¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: G Lee| T: B Smart

25/1

Gelded son of Havana Gold who cost £16,000 as a yearling and is from the family of the talented Communique. Finished in mid-division on debut at Beverley and should be wiser for the experience.

Form: 5

(8)

Mohaather¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Jim Crowley| T: M P Tregoning

5/1

Showcasing colt who cost 110,000 gns as a yearling and is a brother to two winners from 6f to 1m. Really promising runner-up on debut at Newbury despite running green and normal progress should see him in the shake-up.

Form: 2

(2)

Swindler²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: G Mosse| T: E Walker| BF

11/10

Runner-up in races at Yarmouth and Windsor, latterly when sent off favourite. Brings solid form to the table and looks a leading contender.

Form: 22

(7)

Your Mothers' Eyes²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Joey Haynes| T: A Bailey

66/1

Well held in races at Newmarket (6f) and Sandown (1m). Hard to make a case for and is expected to be more effective in nurseries.

Form: 89

(11)

Eufemia

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: Miss A Murphy

25/1

Dream Ahead filly who is a sister to winning sprinter Raucous. Speedy pedigree, but is likely to need this first appearance on the racecourse. Positive jockey booking lends encouragement, however.

Form:

(6)

Fairy Stories²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey

33/1

Mayson filly who is a sister to 6f/7f Fibresand winner Lord Oberon, and a half-sister to winners Medici Banchiere (5f at two) and Vimy Ridge (5f-6f inc at two). Needed her debut run at Pontefract and needs to show significant improvement.

Form: 6

(9)

Rock N Roll Queen¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: J Quinn| T: J Mackie

100/1

Coach House filly from the family of King's Stand Stakes winner Bolshoi. Big price when seventh of eight on debut at Haydock and probably needs time to develop.

Form: 7

Non-Runners

(10)

Quduraat⁹⁶

Weight: 8-11| Age: 2

T: M Appleby J: Theodore Ladd

Forecasts

Swindler (11/10), Alfred Boucher (11/4), Mohaather (5/1), Aluqair (6/1), Quduraat (12/1), Midnight In Havana (25/1), Eufemia (25/1), Fairy Stories (33/1), Your Mothers' Eyes (66/1), Rock N Roll Queen (100/1), Clipsham Tiger (150/1)

An interesting juvenile contest in which Aluqair is an interesting newcomer for an in-form stable. Alfred Boucher and Swindler bring solid form into the contest, but the debut run of MOHAATHER was eyecatching and he may well make enough progress to score on his second appearance.
