Dyed In The Wool¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: T Hamilton| T: R A Fahey

33/1

Has seemed in need of experience on both starts to date and will probably be more of a nursery type.

Form: 74

(4)

Looking For Lynda¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: S W Kelly| T: K R Burke

3/1

Confirmed debut promise when readily landing 5-runner novice at Nottingham (5f, good) 15 days ago, putting his experience to good use. Should step up further, so he makes plenty of appeal.

Form: 21

(10)

Northcliff¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Phil Dennis| T: T D Easterby

16/1

Twice-raced maiden. 13/2, third of 8 in maiden at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) 13 days ago, not ideally placed. Remains with potential and is likely to be on the premises.

Form: 53

(11)

Perfect Play

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Hart| T: C & M Johnston

14/1

Foaled April 30. 90,000 gns yearling, Siyouni colt. Brother to useful 2-y-o 8.3f winner Grenoble and half-brother to several winners, including very smart winner up to 1¾m Ispolini. Dam 1½m winner. Interesting newcomer.

8/1

Foaled March 20. 70,000 gns yearling, Havana Grey gelding. Half-brother to 5.3f winner Aish. Dam sprint maiden. Trainer’s newcomers command respect.

9/4

Foaled February 27. 12,000 gns yearling, £47,000 2-y-o, Tasleet colt. Dam 2-y-o 6f/7f winner. One to take seriously on debut.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby

150/1

Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in minor event (10/1) at Southwell (5f) 26 days ago. Up in trip. Work to do.

Form: 76

Helloyouforever

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: T Eaves| T: N Tinkler

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Barry McHugh| T: R A Fahey

15/2

Foaled April 5. €3,700 foal, £30,000 yearling, Kodi Bear colt. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 6f Victory Laurel. Worth monitoring in the betting.

Just Janet³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Watson| T: D O'Meara

9/2

Once-raced maiden. 4/1, third of 7 in maiden at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm) on debut 32 days ago. Open to improvement and likely to make her presence felt.

Form: 3

Anieres Girl

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Connor Beasley| T: M & D Easterby

66/1

Foaled January 10. Aclaim filly. Dam 9.5f-1½m winner. Not an obvious sort on paper.

Forecasts

Bradsell (9/4), Looking For Lynda (3/1), Just Janet (9/2), Slippin Jimmy (15/2), Reward Smile (8/1), Perfect Play (14/1), Northcliff (16/1), Dyed In The Wool (33/1), Helloyouforever (33/1), Anieres Girl (66/1), Glendown (150/1)

BRADSELL's price rose markedly at the Breeze-Ups and it was a shrewd operation that picked him up, so he's worth chancing to make a successful debut in what could prove to be an above-average novice. Looking For Lynda, the only winner in the field, is an obvious danger, and Just Janet is worth considering with improvement on the cards.
