Sulamani gelding. Second foal, half-brother to 2m hurdle winner Norse Legend. Dam a winner over hurdles and fences. market a good guide on debut.
Dubai Destination gelding that went unsold as a three-year-old at €5,500. dam was a winner of a point, hurdle and chase. Market best guide.
Getaway gelding who's price rose from €19,000 as a foal to €62,000 as a yearling. Dam is from a good jumping family and positive jockey booking.
Dubai Destination gelding. Dam is a point-to-point winner and closely related to Patricktom Boru. Market will be best guide to chances on racecourse debut.
Son of Shantou purchased for €28,000 at the sales as a foal. Half-brother to four winners including the top-class Black Hercules. Well held on debut at Wincanton in April and cheekpieces now added.
Maresca Sorrento gedling that cost £65,000 as a three-year-old. Not beaten very far at all on rules debut at Market Rasen in April and should do better.
€45,000 Robin Des Champs gelding. Dam won the Irish Cesarewitch so is likely to want further in time. Excellent staying on second at Market Rasen on debut and leading contender.
Shirocco gelding who is a half-brother to several winners including Lord Grantham. Dam unraced half-sister to 6 hurdle/chase winners and market good guide on debut.
Gelded son of Dark Angel out of a Dalkhani mare.9/2 and ran a cracker on debut at Down Royal in May. Fist start for new yard today and should do better.
Six-year-old Sir Percy gelding who was well held in sole bumper run back in 2016. Off the track for well over two years and best watched as a result.
September Storm gelding who won his only point-to-point and cost £40,000 at the Doncaster sales in May. First start for new yard today and obvious claims.
Black Sam Bellamy gelding. Cost €20,000 as a three-year-old. Half brother to five winners including Jayed (2m hurdler). not beaten all that far on rules debut at Tipperary back in May and should know more this time on first start for new yard.
Dubai Destination gelding that cost €20,000 as a three-year-old. Travellkoing well when falling 4 out on final point start in March. Interesting recruit. for yard that won this last year.
Arcasio gelding that cost €5,000 as a foal. Dam was a point winner but yard seem to have stronger claims with Ninth wave.,
First foal of an unraced mare. Grandam a 1m½f Flat and 2m-2m1f hurdle winner and granddaughter of a 1m2f Flat winner.. Well held on rules debut at Southwell over a year ago and needs to do more.
Purchased for €7.,500 as a three-year-old and won her last three points. Needs to transfer that ability to rules now and interesting to see what the market makes of her.
Forecasts
Encore Champs (4/1), Thomas Macdonagh (5/1), Banana Joe (5/1), Ninth Wave (6/1), Young Bull (8/1), Elton Des Mottes (10/1), Khanisari (10/1), Anniversary Gift (14/1), Awesomedestination (16/1), Dusky Hercules (20/1), Zanza (20/1), Dr Time (20/1), Lostin A Fog (20/1), Fortescue (33/1), Knight Crusader (100/1), Its A Little Risky (100/1)
As always with these contests the market will be very informative. Banana Joe has a nice page and any market support would be significant. Ninth Wave is another who looks sure to have a future having been picked up for a tidy £40,000. YOUNG BULL was still travelling really well when falling late on on his final start in points and represents the yard that won this with a smart one last year.
- Young Bull
- Ninth Wave
