Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 5-runner nursery (12/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 7 days ago, suited by increase in trip. More needed under a penalty, but he has to be taken seriously all the same.
|
Lightly-raced winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, second of 4 in nursery at Kempton (8f, 8/15) 43 days ago, merely closing up late. Gelded since and obvious claims upped in trip for this tapeta debut, but probably not one to lump on at short odds.
|
Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in minor event at Ripon (8f, good to firm, 2/1) 38 days ago. Up in trip and needs to raise his game.
|
Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in minor event at Salisbury (8f, good to firm, 9/1) on debut 19 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. That was a low-key start to his career, but he's well-bred and could easily take a big step forward upped in trip here.
|
Thrice-raced maiden. 14/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifth of 8 in maiden at this course (7.1f) 15 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Probably more one for handicaps further down the line.
|
Once-raced maiden. 40/1, sixth of 8 in minor event at Thirsk (8f, good) on debut 25 days ago. Up in trip and it's best to look elsewhere.

Forecasts
One World (8/11), Forceful Speed (10/3), Limerick Bound (11/2), Ironopolis (10/1), Star Start (28/1), Super Spy (150/1)
LIMERICK BOUND was never in the hunt on his recent introduction at Salisbury, but he wouldn't be the first 2-y-o from the Johnston yard to improve significantly for a run and this stiffer test is likely to help. The Sea The Stars colt is taken to get the better of One World, who is very much the one to beat, but he was turned over when odds on at Kempton last time and there's now an air of vulnerability about him. Recent Wolverhampton winner Forceful Speed is best of the rest.
