Toussarok²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: P J McDonald| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 81| D

17/2

Winner at Newcastle on debut in June. Wasn't quite at his best when third in 6f novice event at Yarmouth last time, but has to be respected on the pick of his form.

Form: 1293

Kadupul^t1²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: R Kingscote| T: W J Haggas| OR: 80| D

18/1

Won 5-runner maiden at Yarmouth in June. Well held in Newmarket listed event next time but his latest effort at Salisbury excusable (denied a run). Tongue strap on for the 1st time.

Form: 158

Tahonta¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 76| BF

3/1

Much improved from debut when second of 8 in maiden (5/4) at Beverley (5f, good) 19 days ago, going like the best horse at the weights. Must enters calculations on nursery debut.

Power Station²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon| OR: 75

13/2

Wiser for debut when third in a Lingfield novice (7f, turf). Ran as well as could have been expected in valuable sales race at York but well held on Doncaster nursery debut last time.

Form: 6398

Setantii Girl¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: J P Sullivan| T: J G Given| OR: 75| D

10/3

Made a successful debut at Ripon (6f) in August, really getting the hang of things late on. Well held in Ayr Group 3 since but this clearly less demanding.

Form: 19

Rogue Nation³²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 73

8/1

Produced his best effort to date when second of 10 in novice event (28/1) at Haydock (6f, heavy) 32 days ago, running on. Switches to nurseries now and may do better still.

Fayathaan¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 73

11/2

Form: 432

(7)

Under Fox¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: S De Sousa| T: T D Easterby| OR: 67

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Only fourth of 7 on nursery debut at Catterick (7f, good, 14/1) 17 days ago. Isn't living up to his purchase price at present.

Forecasts

Tahonta (3/1), Ballyconneely Bay (3/1), Setantii Girl (10/3), Fayathaan (11/2), Power Station (13/2), Rogue Nation (8/1), Under Fox (8/1), Toussarok (17/2), Kadupul (18/1)

A tricky race, but TAHONTA went like the best horse at the weights when second at Beverley last month and looks to have been handed a fair opening mark, so he seems as likely as any. Toussarok is respected on the pick of his form, with C&D winner Ballyconneely Bay and Rogue Nation others to note.
