Arbiter^h⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: K T O'Neill| T: J & T Gosden

13/2

Has not set the world on fire in two AW runs to date; has been staying on late in the day on both starts but plenty of improvement needed to get his head in front at this stage of his career.

Form: 64

(2)

Golden Fountain

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: C & M Johnston

14/1

Cost 18,000 euros as a yearling; reasonably bred Fountain Of Youth colt related to plenty of winners around a mile; it will be interesting to see the level of market support on his debut.

Iron Heart⁴¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: L P Keniry| T: A M Balding

4/1

No real show on debut on heavy ground at Newbury in October; well-related colt with his dam sparkling as a two-year-old; obviously can progress and can't be totally ruled out.

Form: 0

(8)

Katzoff^h¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Jim Crowley| T: R Hannon

5/2

Performed well when finishing 1L fourth in a 1m novice race at Lingfield when making his debut recently; improvement likely and is one for the shortlist on this occasion.

Form: 4

(3)

Sky Commander¹⁹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: James Doyle| T: J Tate

5/4

From the family of Lancashire Oaks & Prix Vermeille winner Bateel; in rear and disappointing on only racecourse appearance at Leicester in May; open to improvement but hard to make genuine case for.

Form: 8

(9)

St Just³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Georgia Cox⁽³⁾| T: W J Haggas

50/1

By Golden Horn out of a useful 7f winner; has finished last on both racecourse appearance and while likely to do better in time is an unlikely winner of this contest.

Form: 07

(1)

Girl Of Dreams¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Kate Leahy⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs N S Evans

150/1

Of little note on breeding and very disappointing on debut at Lingfield in November when finishing last of 12; can only improve but difficult to see her being up to winning this.

Form: 0

(5)

Love Not Money⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Mitch Godwin⁽³⁾| T: J J Bridger| OR: 48

66/1

The most experienced in the line-up but has shown littlee to nothing on all her racecourse appearances with her best effort arguably coming at Wolverhampton over five furlongs in October.

Form: 705709

(4)

September Power¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian

25/1

Mastercraftsman filly bought for €110,000 at the sales in October last year; always in rear on only racecourse sighting at the end of November at Chelmsford; capable of improvement but may need a little bit of time before showing her best.

Form: 0

Forecasts

Sky Commander (5/4), Katzoff (5/2), Iron Heart (4/1), Arbiter (13/2), Golden Fountain (14/1), September Power (25/1), St Just (50/1), Love Not Money (66/1), Girl Of Dreams (150/1)

KATZOFF looks to have the best form from those on show and can improve on his racecourse debut at Lingfield recently where he showed plenty of promise to finish a close up 4th beaten less than a length. Arbiter is slowly getting the hang of things and should be able to do better than on her previous two starts given her connections. Iron Heart is well-bred and will find this easier than when struggling in the mud at Newbury on her debut. Any market moves for the newcomer Golden Fountain will be interesting given the paucity of talent of those with racecourse experience.
