Selected odds by:

(4)

Monaadah⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Jim Crowley| T: S bin Suroor| D

5/2

Promising sort. 5/2, won 10-runner minor event at Meydan (7f, good) 68 days ago. Likely to improve and merits serious respect, despite conceding weight all round.

Form: 1

(3)

Razeyna²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| D

11/10

Promising type. Won 9-runner maiden at Newbury (7f, good to firm, 7/1) on debut 23 days ago, pushed out. The second in that maiden has subsequently gone one better and this filly is open to considerable improvement.

Form: 1

(2)

All Are Mine

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: J P Spencer| T: D M Simcock

25/1

€55,000 yearling, £140,000 2-y-o. Half-brother to 2-y-o 1m winner Bill Peyto. Dam, useful German 9f-1½m winner, closely related to very smart 1¼m/11f winner Almandin. Will be of interest if the market speaks in his favour.

Form:

(9)

Doctor Khan Junior⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P J McDonald| T: G R Oldroyd

150/1

Once-raced maiden. 28/1, seventh of 11 in minor event at this course (6f) on debut 61 days ago. Readily passed over.

Form: 7

(8)

Frustrating⁷⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: T Hamilton| T: I Furtado

150/1

Once-raced maiden. 12/1, eighth of 9 in minor event at Southwell (7.1f) on debut 75 days ago. Hard to fancy on the back of that display.

Form: 8

(7)

Maffeo Barberini¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: K Frost

250/1

Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in maiden (125/1) at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Probably more one for handicaps in due course.

Form: 96

(1)

Savrola

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: J Mitchell| T: C F Wall

28/1

Churchill gelding. Half-brother to 1m/9f winner Principled Stand. Yard's newcomers generally come on for a run, but this one needs a market check all the same.

Form:

(5)

Tothenines¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: S H James| T: K R Burke

7/1

Promising type. Second of 7 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, good to firm, 5/2) 17 days ago. Remains open to improvement and he should make his presence felt.

Form: 2-2

(6)

Willem Twee³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe

4/1

Once-raced maiden. Fourth of 13 in minor event at Kempton (7f, 12/1) on debut 34 days ago. That experience won't be wasted on him and improvement should be forthcoming.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Razeyna (11/10), Monaadah (5/2), Willem Twee (4/1), Tothenines (7/1), All Are Mine (25/1), Savrola (28/1), Doctor Khan Junior (150/1), Frustrating (150/1), Maffeo Barberini (250/1)

There was much to like about the way RAZEYNA knuckled down when making a winning debut at Newbury, form which received a timely boost when the runner-up, Lady Eros, scored at Wolverhampton last week. She almost certainly has more to offer and gets the nod ahead of Monaadah, who also made a successful start to his career when landing a minor event in Dubai. Tothenines and Willem Twee are both promising types and All Are Mine is one to note in the betting.
