Selected odds by:
17,000gns yearling; fifth foal; half-brother to four winners including Well Fleeced (6½f-1m2f France) and Roman Impero (7f-1m Ireland and Hong Kong); stablemate of Summer Bride.
Poet's Voice gelding who has appeared to be very light on ability as a juvenile; well beaten on all three starts (5f-7f); holds no conceivable chance.
€115,000 foal, 42,000gns yearling; low-key in two starts to date, failing to beat a single rival when tailed off behind the promising Jubiloso at Newbury (7f, good) three weeks ago; this is an easier option.
Finished 3L third to Mawakib at Wolverhampton (6f) in March, but hasn't quite scaled such heights since and now bids to break the duck at the eighth time of asking; fair chance in a weak race.
Has improved steadily with racing and finished runner up to the all the way winner Regular on turf debut in a Leicester maiden (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago; realistic contender.
Has acquitted himself reasonably well on a couple of occasions at Musselburgh (7f-1m1f) this year, including when finishing 2L second to the odds-on Cape Victory latest.
26,000gns yearling; well beaten 11th of 12 (25/1) on debut at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; very unlikely contender on that evidence, although is tackling a new trip.
Mayson filly, and a stablemate of the newcomer Cuba Ruba; plugged onto finish 7¾L third to 1/6f Davydenko at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) on Monday; reappears quickly.
Forecasts
Shawaaheq (6/5), Spirit Of Lund (5/2), Serengeti Song (4/1), Summer Bride (12/1), Immoral (14/1), Cuba Ruba (28/1), Guarded Secret (50/1), Ganton Eagle (66/1)
Even by the standards of most median auction maidens, this rates as a very weak and winnable opportunity. Shawaaheq is improving steadily with racing and having proved himself on turf at Leicester should be capable of playing a fairly prominent role for the Dunlop/Greatrex combination, but at the eighth time of asking this could finally be the day for SERENGETI SONG who gets the tentative nod in a truly unappealing betting medium.
