Boiling Point²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Aidan Keeley⁽³⁾| T: R Varian| BF

7/4

Twice-raced maiden. 5/6, third of 6 in maiden at Newbury (8f, good) 22 days ago. Sets the standard.

Form: 23

(1)

Borderline Boss⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan

40/1

Once-raced maiden. 11/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at Catterick (7f, good) on debut 45 days ago. Held back by inexperience there, so could prove a different proposition.

Form: 7

(2)

Brompton Cross⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe

250/1

Once-raced maiden. Last of 8 in minor event (33/1) at Carlisle (7.8f, good) on debut 8 days ago. Hard to make a solid case for on the back of such an inauspicious debut.

Form: 8

(10)

Colorada Dancer²⁰

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

10/11

Promising individual. Second of 11 in maiden at Sandown (7f, good, 16/1) on debut 20 days ago. Open to improvement and well worth a chance to open his account at the second attempt.

Form: 2

(7)

Filey Beach²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: A Mullen| T: C Johnston

40/1

Once-raced maiden. 17/2, eleventh of 13 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) on debut 24 days ago. May know more second time out.

10/1

Foaled February 24. €120,000 yearling, £80,000 2-y-o, Too Darn Hot colt. Half-brother to several winners, including useful Scandinavian 1m/9f winner Like A King and winner up to 9.5f Daafr. Interesting newcomer.

11/2

Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 8 in minor event (25/1) at Leicester (7f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Worthy of consideration.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Jonny Peate⁽³⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray

Forecasts

Colorada Dancer (10/11), Boiling Point (7/4), Strong Request (11/2), Stay In The Game (10/1), Borderline Boss (40/1), Filey Beach (40/1), Mysteryofthesands (80/1), Starlight Stanley (100/1), Northern Cracksman (150/1), Alma Don (250/1), Brompton Cross (250/1)

COLORADA DANCER stayed on to good effect when second at Sandown first time out and he can improve enough to get the better of Boiling Point, who sets the standard as it stands. Strong Request is also worth considering.
