11/8

Calyx colt who produced a promising first effort when second of 11 in 7f maiden at Ascot on debut 3 weeks ago. The time of that race was nothing flash but he's open to plenty of improvement nonetheless.

Foaled February 23. €80,000 2-y-o, Lope De Vega colt. Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1½m Highgarden and winner up to 11f Fly Falcon, both useful. Dam 1m winner. Oisin Murphy is a positive jockey booking, and would enter calculations if supported in the betting.

Forecasts

Accumulate (11/8), Symbol Of Power (11/4), Al Shabab Storm (4/1), Zain Blue (4/1), Miletus (15/2), Native Warrior (8/1), Honrado (33/1), King Of France (66/1), Bradman (250/1)

ZAIN BLUE backed up his debut effort when runner-up in the Convivial at York and, with that form proving notably strong, he's selected to become the fifth next-time-out winner from that maiden. Accumulate shaped with bags of promise on his recent Ascot debut and is open to plenty of improvement, with Symbol of Power pick of the newcomers before market clues.
