14/1

10/11

Showcasing colt who continued theme of race-by-race progress when opening his account in a Newcastle maiden (7f) 25 days ago, well served by the increase in trip and displaying a good attitude. May do better still now handicapping.

Form: 3-31

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: M Appleby| OR: 78| C

12/1

Landed a gamble on debut for his shrewd yard over 6f here in December. Exploits have been mixed in handicaps since though, only third of 4 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 12 days ago having dictated the pace. Drops back in trip now.

Form: 014-723

5/1

Winner of a 7f maiden at Brighton and a 1m nursery at Ripon last summer and had excuses on account of the ground when well held final 2 starts. Gelded ahead of return and yard have been amongst the winners from limited runners so far this year.

10/1

Son of Kodiac who improved for step up to this trip when successful at odds of 40/1 at Lingfield in October. 3 lb rise seemed to catch him out when third of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (7f) later that month, though. Absent since.

Quiet Resolve (10/11), Neapolitan (7/2), Miguel (5/1), Eminny (6/1), Mereside Madness (7/1), Master Franca (10/1), Ippotheos (12/1), Queues Likely (14/1)

QUIET RESOLVE continued his theme of race-by-race progress and proved determined in the process when edging out a promising newcomer at Newcastle over this trip 25 days ago. Open to further progress on that evidence, he's expected to go well again on handicap debut. Miguel is another who may yet have more to offer as a 3-y-o.
