El Habano¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick

66/1

25/1, badly in need of the experience when twelfth of 14 in maiden at Newbury (6f, good) on debut 19 days ago, slowly away. Looks one for later on.

Form: 0

(3)

Lieber Power¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding

1/1

Cracksman colt who holds a Derby entry and shaped better than the bare result when seventh of 15 in minor event at Newbury (7f, good, 10/3) on debut 18 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Sure to improve.

Form: 7

(10)

Little Tiger⁵⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Darragh Keenan| T: W Stone

80/1

100/1, held back by inexperience when twelfth of 14 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f) on debut 50 days ago, slowly away.

Form: 0

Marinakis

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Sanderson⁽³⁾| T: Ian Williams

66/1

Foaled March 15. 45,000 gns yearling, Ulysses gelding. Dam, 2-y-o 6f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m Raaeq. Worth a market check.

Mickey Mongoose³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 70

17/2

Thrice-raced maiden. 12/1, last of 10 in minor event at Thirsk (7f, soft) 32 days ago. Looks one for low-grade handicaps.

Form: 040

(6)

Mojito Boy²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: C Hills

18/1

28/1, too green when thirteenth of 14 in minor event at Yarmouth (6f, good) on debut 22 days ago, very slowly away.

Form: 0

(9)

Supreme King⁵⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 85| BF

6/4

Runner-up on debut and better form when occupying same spot in 18-runner maiden (11/2) at Goodwood (6f) next start. Possibly found a third run in less than a month one too many at Leicester last time and he's worth another chance after a 2-month break.

Form: 225

(5)

Tea Sea

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: George Downing| T: A W Carroll

200/1

Foaled March 10. Hunter's Light colt. Half-brother to 1m/9f winner Rastapopoulus. Dam unraced half-sister to 1m/8.2f winner Oriental and 5f-6.5f winner Lipsink (both useful).

Form:

(1)

Golden Phase

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: George Bass⁽³⁾| T: D J Coakley

125/1

Foaled March 21. 8,000 gns yearling, Gustav Klimt filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including winner up to 7f Groupie and 5f winner Millie Lou. Dam 5f winner.

Form:

(7)

Sea Of Elegance

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: T Ward

16/1

Foaled January 22. 170,000 gns yearling, Sea The Stars filly. Closely related to 11.6f winner Aljalela and half-sister to 2-y-o 7.5f/1m winner Ursuly. Dam 2-y-o 1m winner who stayed 12.4f. Plenty to like on paper.

Forecasts

Lieber Power (1/1), Supreme King (6/4), Mickey Mongoose (17/2), Sea Of Elegance (16/1), Mojito Boy (18/1), Marinakis (66/1), El Habano (66/1), Little Tiger (80/1), Golden Phase (125/1), Tea Sea (200/1)

This looks to revolve around SUPREME KING, who possibly found a third run in less than a month one too many at Leicester last time and Richard Hannon's charge is well worth another chance to build on his pair of runner-up efforts back in July. Lieber Power is sure to have derived plenty from his debut effort at Newbury last month so he's put forward as the main danger, ahead of newcomer Sea of Elegance.
