11/8

Promising type. Second of 8 in maiden at Haydock (6f, firm, 4/1) on debut 29 days ago. Open to progress and he should have a part to play in the finish.

Form: 2

Always Amazed

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen| T: W Stone

40/1

Foaled February 14. Half-brother to 2-y-o 1m winner Shoot For Gold. Dam, French 1¼m winner, half-sister to very smart winner up to 1½m Grand Couturier. Probably best watched on debut.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: David Egan| T: R M H Cowell

28/1

Foaled April 23. Prince of Lir colt. Half-brother to 5f winner Sugar Dumpling. Dam 5f winner. Yard's newcomers usually come on for a run.

5/2

Foaled February 24. 60,000 gns yearling, Dubawi colt. Half-brother to useful winner up to 1m Ardiente and 1m winner Byzantia. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Appealing on paper and one to note in the betting.

15/2

Once-raced maiden. Third of 9 in minor event at Beverley (5f, good to soft, 11/2) on debut 90 days ago. Up in trip and she should have more to offer.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: K T O'Neill| T: Mrs C A Dunnett

250/1

Twice-raced maiden. 300/1, seventh of 11 in minor event at Kempton (6f) 19 days ago. Looks set for another struggle.

6/1

Promising type. 22/1, second of 11 in minor event at Newcastle (6f) on debut 20 days ago, not knocked about. Good chance of going one better here, providing she gets away on terms.

200/1

Foaled April 3. £2,100 yearling, Mehmas filly. Dam lightly-raced sister to smart winner up to 9f Stipulate. Winning newcomers for this yard (also represented by Fast Flo) are few and far between.

Forecasts

Al Barez (11/8), Sikorsky (5/2), Kape Moss (6/1), Star Zinc (7/1), Anniversary Belle (15/2), Prince Of Flight (28/1), Always Amazed (40/1), Spirit Of The Age (200/1), Fast Flo (250/1)

Martyn Meade boasts a very respectable strike rate with 2-y-os this season and SIKORSKY wouldn't need to be out of the ordinary to make a winning debut. The Dubawi colt ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper and the hint should be taken if he's strong in the betting. Kape Moss shaped well on debut at Newcastle and is feared most ahead of fellow promising types Al Barez and Anniversary Belle.
