Oasis Dream colt, cost 50,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to a 6f winner and dam a half sister to a two winners including a 5f Listed winner. Outran big odds when third at Newmarket and yard's debutantes often improve markedly for the run.

Gleneagles colt, cost 55,000 gns as a yearling. Dam a sister to a juvenile winner over this trip and half-sister to a 1m4f Italian Group 1 winner. Yard's debutantes often benefit for the run.

Mastercraftsman colt who improved from debut to finish runner-up in a Goodwood maiden earlier in the month. May be even better when tried over further but each-way claims if he improves from his last run.

Dutch Art colt, cost £90,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to a 7f winner and dam placed in Listed company. Market could be the best guide on debut. Entered in the Group 2 Champagne Stakes next month.

Dubawi colt, brother to 1m2f winner. Dam a German Group 3 winner. Only narrowly denied by a well-bred sort who had the benefit of experience on debut at Sandown. Should improve but wide draw not ideal.

Kingman colt, cost 280,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to two useful sorts over similar trips. Dam a Group 3 winner as a juvenile. Only beaten ½L on debut and the winner franked the form in the nursery here on Wednesday; fascinating contender.

Kingman colt, cost 120,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to four winners including Group 2 winner. Dam a half-sister to a French Derby winner. Yard do well with their juveniles here; worth monitoring in the market.

Night Of Thunder colt, cost 160,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to a Listed winner (7f). Only narrowly denied on debut and the winner came out and won here on Thursday. Should improve for the step up in trip and makes plenty of appeal here.

New Approach colt, cost 50,000 gns as a foal and 65,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to a juvenile 1m winner. Dam a 6f dirt winner. Worth a market check.

Cacique colt, cost 62,000 gns as a foal and 68,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to two winners between 6f and 1m. Dam a 6f winner and half-sister to a Group 3 winner. Looked very green on debut at Newbury; needs to have learnt plenty from that.

Excelebration colt, cost €26,000 as a foal and €120,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to three winners, most notably Lady Kaya who finished runner-up in this year's 1,000 Guineas. Yard can have their juvenile ready to go and he warrants respect.

Minor progress on third start when fourth of 12 in a Catterick maiden but sure to find this a very tough ask.

Distorted Humor filly who ran well on debut at Goodwood earlier this month prior to a narrow defeat at Kempton to a well backed rival; will need more here though.

16:15 York - 23 August 2019 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

FOX DUTY FREE looked in need of the experience when running with plenty of promise at Newbury on debut. That form was franked here earlier in the week and he's taken to improve to land this on just his second start. Molatham has to be of interest and he's another who has form tied in with a winner here on Thursday. Afro Blue and Dubai Mirage are two who showed enough on debut to be in the mix here while Western Hero and Gift Of Kings are a pair of Kevin Ryan newcomers who are worth noting.
