Jadhlaan²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 92

12/1

Smooth winner of a novice at York and took form to a new level when second in nursery at Goodwood. Not so good in similar event at former track since may not want ground to be too fast. Up in trip.

Form: 321828

Modern Games³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 90| BF| D

2/1

All the better for debut when winning maiden at Newmarket and pulled clear of the rest when runner-up under a penalty at Leicester. Useful prospect and opening mark is an appealing one.

Form: 512

(8)

Implore^b1¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: L Dettori| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 87| D

17/2

Came good with cheekpieces added when seeing off 13 rivals at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) and backed that up with good second on nursery bow at Sandown. Should go well again in a change of headgear

Form: 42512

(10)

Ardbraccan³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R L Moore| T: R Hannon| OR: 85| D

22/1

Showed determination to open her account at Newmarket before a creditable showing when fifth in a nursery at Goodwood. Not disgraced at Group level since and this more realistic.

Form: 82157

(4)

Bastogne²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: James Doyle| T: P D Evans| OR: 83

11/1

Leicester maiden winner over 6f in June and improved when hitting the frame in nurseries at Goodwood and York over this trip. Respected.

Form: 31334

(7)

Wonderful World⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: David Probert| T: M R Channon| OR: 82

18/1

Easy winner of a Brighton novice (6f) last month and didn't shape at all badly when sixth in big-field York nursery. Found listed class too demanding at Ripon since.

Form: 23168

(9)

Bullet Force¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Rossa Ryan| T: K R Burke| OR: 82| D

13/2

£95,000 Breeze-Ups purchase who made a pleasing start behind promising winners in Sandown maidens. Landed odds in straightforward fashion at Musselburgh 2 weeks ago and player on handicap bow.

Form: 221

(5)

Atrium³⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: J P Spencer| T: C Fellowes| OR: 82| D

12/1

Built on a promising debut third when seeing off 10 rivals at Ascot (7f, good to firm). Not seen to best effect at Chelmsford since and remains open to improvement. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 314

(2)

Sed Maarib⁴³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 80| D

11/4

Promising type. Off the mark at the third attempt in novice at Beverley 6 weeks ago, soon clear. Needs considering on nursery bow with further improvement on the cards.

Form: 721

(1)

Force Eleven¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-0| J: Hollie Doyle| T: N Tinkler| OR: 69

150/1

Sent off at big prices all 3 starts and just modest form at best. 2 lb out of the weights on handicap bow.

Form: 055

Forecasts

Modern Games (2/1), Sed Maarib (11/4), Bullet Force (13/2), Implore (17/2), Bastogne (11/1), Atrium (12/1), Jadhlaan (12/1), Wonderful World (18/1), Ardbraccan (22/1), Force Eleven (150/1)

MODERN GAMES is progressing nicely and an opening mark of 90 is an appealing one given how well his form is working out. Sed Maarib is another who remains with potential now handicapping, while claims can also be made for Implore, who was a good second on his nursery debut at Sandown, and Ardbraccan, who's dropping back down in class.
