Horse silk
14/1
€30,000 juvenile; fifth foal; half-brother to the US dirt winners Chalking It Up (1m) and Casting Crowns (7f-1m); is probably best watched on racecourse debut unless the market speaks in an overtly positive manner.

11/4
Authorized colt (€27,000 yearling); took a pleasing step forward from debut when beaten a neck (kept on well) by the 2-5f Cloud Drift in a Nottingham (1m½f, good to soft) novice median auction; interesting prospect.

Horse silk
7/1
26,000gns yearling; seventh foal; brother to the useful 1m-1m2½f winner Luminate (Grp 3), and a half-brother to the 1m3f winner Kalabaya; market an informative guide.

2/5
Lope De Vega colt (€25,000 yearling); 18-1 when narrowly beaten (closing) by fellow debutant Kenzai Warrior at Salisbury (1m, good) three weeks ago - Shandoz (fourth), Khalifa Sat (sixth) and Sea Voice (last) all subsequent winners. Strong claims.

(5)
Horse silk
50/1
War Command gelding (20,000gns juvenile); slowly away and soon detached on debut at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) last week; needs to improve significantly to trouble stablemate Top Flight Cool.

(6)
Horse silk
25/1
£4,000 yearling; first foal from a 6f AW winning dam (Exentricity) who was a half-sister to the 1m2f Listed winner Cruck Realta and the 7f-2m scorer Davy's Dilemma.

(8)
Horse silk
50/1
Garswood filly (£5,000 yearling); has looked light on ability so far (0-2), only beating a single rival home when sixth (of seven) to Gladice in a 7f Wolverhampton fillies' maiden auction 17 days ago; others stronger.

Forecasts

Max Vega (2/5), Green Book (11/4), Provocation (7/1), Bringitonboris (14/1), Top Flight Cool (16/1), Rally Driver (25/1), She's A Unicorn (50/1), War Defender (50/1), Jervaulx (50/1)

The Lope De Vega colt MAX VEGA made a striking impression when a fast-finishing second on debut at Salisbury three weeks ago, and that race has already yielded three subsequent winners. Therefore, he sets the clear form standard in this very winnable novice, with only Green Book a remote threat on the figures. The market should reveal clues with regards what can be expected of the newcomers Provocation (Mark Johnston), Bringitonboris (Keith Dalgleish) and Rally Driver (Mick Channon).
