Air To Air

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: K Shoemark| T: G Boughey

9/2

Stable yet to have a 2yo winner; 36,000gsn yearling, second foal, dam, maiden (stayed 8.5f), half-sister to smart 1m2f-1m4f winner Air Pilot. Best watched given the yard's record with 2yo's so far.

Dandys Derriere³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Dane O'Neill| T: B J Meehan

8/15

Very nearly a debutant winner for the yard (had more than usual this summer) just beaten by subsequent Group 3 winner Cairn Gorm over 6f at Newbury. Lacked the experience to get the job done in the end, should improve, tough to ignore.

Form: 2

Denzil's Laughing¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: K J Leonard| T: K Dalgleish

50/1

Well held on both starts so far showing nothing more than on his debut at Ayr last time when upped in trip to 6f. Unlikely to be troubling the principals, candidate for nurseries after this.

Form: 95

(5)

Light Wakeup²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Botti

16/1

Held back by inexperience on his debut at Lingfield over 6f he was struggling from halfway and just plugged on at the end. Should be better for the experience but hard to recommend in a winning context.

Form: 6

(9)

Luckiness

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Shepherd| T: D M Simcock

12/1

€50,000 yearling, newcomer, by Mehmas, fourth foal: half-brother to 7f winner Zhebe, dam lightly-raced half-sister to smart winner up to 1m Beauvoir. Nicely-bred sort but stables 2yo debutants usually come on for the run.

Semper Augustus³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: E Walker

6/1

Makes some appeal on pedigree showing ability amidst the inexperience on debut at Chepstow (7.1f), never really a threat but hinted at better to come. Dropped in trip and onto a different surface, one of the more likely sorts to bustle up favourite.

Form: 6

(8)

Silver Nemo¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Josephine Gordon| T: S L Keightley

40/1

Showed a little more second time out than he had on his debut at Yarmouth over 6f although it was still a fairly modest performance. Would need to show a lot more to het near the main players here.

Form: 83

(10)

Tom Mix¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Joey Haynes| T: I Furtado

125/1

Offered very little when 125-1 on his debut at Doncaster (7f) finishing well held after leading in the early stages. Now tried on AW back at 6f, hard to make a case and makes little appeal.

Form: 0

(2)

Gems Jewel¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: K T O'Neill| T: I Furtado

66/1

Slow away on debut after getting upset in the stalls there wasn't anything more to like about his second effort at Beverley also over 5f. Steps up to 6f moving on to the AW for the first time but looks destined for low-grade handicaps.

Form: 77

(6)

Love Baileys³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: T Hamilton| T: R A Fahey

33/1

From a leading yard who have finally going with their 2yo's but showed nothing but inexperience on her debut over 6f at Haydock. To be hoped that she can show a little more now switched to AW but expectations remain modest.

Form: 5

Forecasts

Dandys Derriere (8/15), Air To Air (9/2), Semper Augustus (6/1), Luckiness (12/1), Light Wakeup (16/1), Love Baileys (33/1), Silver Nemo (40/1), Denzil's Laughing (50/1), Gems Jewel (66/1), Tom Mix (125/1)

Not that much strength in depth in this division and it offers a good opportunity for DANDYS DERRIERE to get off the mark having pushed a subsequent Group 3 winner all the way on his debut at Newbury it won’t be a surprise to see him improve further. The others to have run already look on the whole a modest bunch although Semper Augustus appears the to improve from his debut. Of the two newcomers Air To Air looks the best and he could ne another to bustle up the favourite and at least give him some sort of contest.
