Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Cieren Fallon⁽³⁾| T: M L W Bell

9/1

Muhaarar half-brother to a number of winners including the high-class stayer Big Orange. Almost certain to want further soon enough but interesting to see if he finds favour in the market.

Apres Dark

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: David Egan| T: M Botti

22/1

£27,000 Estidkhaar colt who is closely related to some decent sprinters in Italy. Yard has been among the winners since the restart and can get one ready so may not be far away on debut.

Cooperation⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon

5/4

Half-brother to a Listed and a Group 3 winner. Cost £82,000 as a yearling and is by Mehmas out of a sprint maiden. Ran free but only faded last 100 yards over C&D last week and will know more now. Good chance with experience to call on.

Form: 5

Final Voyage

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: P J McDonald| T: J Tate

9/2

75,000 euros Camacho yearling is half-brother to two winners between 5f-1m1f. Yard already had a 2yo debut winner so every chance he'll know his job and be thereabouts.

Form:

(4)

Tashbeeh

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Dane O'Neill| T: E A L Dunlop

8/1

Siyouni colt bought for £200,000 as a yearling. Dam won three times between 6.5f-1m. Stable off the mark last week and this is their first juvenile runner of 2020.

Form:

(3)

Ubari

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: W Buick| T: C & M Johnston

10/3

£52,000 Oasis Dream colt hailing form fine stable. Closely related to a few winners at around 1m2f-1m4f so may need further before showing his best form but yard more than capable of readying one on debut if sharp enough

COOPERATION showed ability last week despite runnning too freely on debut over C&D. He only ran out of puff in the last half furlong so with that experience under his belt may be good enough to score if he settles better. £200,000 purchase Tashbeeh could be anything and is by the good sire Siyouni. He is respected on his first start along with the Camacho colt Final Voyage. The other three may all have ability and in a race with precious little form to go on the betting market may offer informative clues as to what is expected first time out.
