3/1

Fetched six-figures again at the Breeze-Ups. Brother to useful 2-y-o 5f-6f winner Eve Lodge and half-brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Mirror Kisses. 12/1, shaped well enough when mid-field in 6f Haydock maiden on debut a month ago. Yard won this last year with once-raced performer and he should improve.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: J F Egan| T: P D Evans

10/1

Bred to be sharp but was easy to back (20/1 outsider of six) and well held in 6f Windsor novice last month, taking strong hold. Probably needs more time.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: P Cosgrave| T: G Boughey

7/1

€42,000 Dandy Man colt. Bred to be precocious and certainly wasn't lacking for fitness in appearance, but finished well held on debut at Thirsk (5f, 11/2) 11 weeks ago.

5/6

Promising start in 5f Salisbury novice in May and has run in the Woodcote and Windsor Castle since, much improved in first-time tongue tie when seventh at Royal Ascot last week, doing well under the circumstances given the mid-race move he made on the far wing. Surely a winner-in-waiting.

Forecasts

Silencer (5/6), Danger Alert (3/1), Paddy Brunty (7/1), Erosion Risk (10/1), Changeofmind (12/1), Felix Natalis (18/1), City Centre (33/1), Majil (66/1), Nifaliophobia (100/1)

SILENCER ran a blinder in last week's Windsor Castle, making a big move mid-race on the far wing and not beaten far in the end. He should be hard to beat here from stall 1. Danger Alert looks the danger after a promising debut at Haydock.
