Abnaa¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Shepherd| T: B J Meehan

7/2

Fair fifth in a 6f maiden at Newbury (6f, good) when making his debut last month. Likely to have improved for the experience but has a wide draw to overcome in this contest.

Form: 5

Abwaaq

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: J Mitchell| T: S & E Crisford

5/2

Unraced son of More Than Ready out of a mare who was placed in sprints on dirt. Interesting runner for a decent stable on debut.

Bee Magic

22/1

Unraced Zebedee gelding bought for €7,000 as a yearling in September last year. Half-brother to a couple of winners and interesting to see how he fares on debut.

Blairlogie¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: George Bass⁽⁷⁾| T: M R Channon

50/1

Failed to build on a promising 7L sixth at Chepstow (7f, good-to-soft) on debut last month when finishing last of nine at Newbury (7f, good-to-firm) subsequently. Others make more appeal.

Form: 69

Bold Suitor

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: P Cosgrave| T: E Walker

10/1

Unraced Brazen Beau colt purchased for 78,000 gns as a yearling in October last year. Half-brother to amultiple winner Beyond Equal among others and he is an interesting runner on debut.

Daysaq

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: K Shoemark| T: Owen Burrows

7/2

Unraced son of Invincible Spirit and a half-brother to winner Fikhaar. Worth a check in the market for a stable with a 29% strike-rate (2/7) in recent weeks.

Emirates Currency

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: C G Cox

16/1

Unraced Muraarah colt cost connections 65,000 gns at the sales. Half-brother to classy sprinter Justineo and market support would be notable on racecourse debut.

Fansurper⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Paula Muir⁽⁵⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray

50/1

Held on both starts to date most recently when 12L fourth over 6f at Ripon (good-to-soft) last weekend. Others hold stronger claims.

Form: 74

San Rafael

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: J F Egan| T: C & M Johnston

9/1

Unraced son of Tamayuz purchased for €50,000 12 months ago. Half-brother to three winners and is of interest on debut for a leading stable.

Sunset Breeze⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Ryan Tate| T: Sir Mark Prescott

17/2

Showed ability when finishing 5¾L fourth over 6f at Southwell on debut last week. Likely more needed if he is to take this contest however.

Forecasts

Abwaaq (5/2), Daysaq (7/2), Abnaa (7/2), Sunset Breeze (17/2), San Rafael (9/1), Bold Suitor (10/1), Mandible (10/1), Krafla (12/1), Emirates Currency (16/1), Bee Magic (22/1), Fansurper (50/1), Blairlogie (50/1)

ABNAA showed ability when fifth on debut last month and he is taken to get off the mark at the second time of asking in this novice event. The unraced Abwaaq, in the same ownership as the selection represents a good yard and he can finish runner-up ahead of San Rafael who represents a top stable on debut.
