Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Josephine Gordon| T: D Shaw

150/1

Foaled April 1. £24,000 yearling, Ulysses gelding. Brother to 1m winner Kirilenko and 7f winner Purefoy. Yard rarely strikes with 2-y-o newcomers.

Balzarini

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Shepherd| T: S C Williams

100/1

Foaled April 29. €60,000 foal, Dark Angel colt. Dam, 2-y-o 6f/7f winner, half-sister to smart 1¼m-2m winner Johann Zoffany, 6f-7f winner Crown Choice and 1¼m winner Hail, latter 2 useful. Entitled to come on for the run.

Beccali

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby

8/11

Foaled March 27. €310,000 foal, €580,000 yearling, Lope De Vega colt. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to useful 6f winner Platinum Star (by Lope de Vega). Immediate appeal given his pedigree and the powerful connections he represents.

Jorge Alvares¹²

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

11/2

Promising type. Third of 11 in minor event at York (6f, good, 40/1) on debut 12 days ago. Open to improvement and he should have a part to play.

Form: 3

Ran Amok

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: James Doyle| T: H Palmer

14/1

Foaled April 13. €17,500 yearling, £70,000 2-y-o, Dandy Man colt. Dam unraced out of half-sister to dam of Irish 2000 Guineas winner Roderic O'Connor, an excellent family. Watch the betting for clues.

Form:

(1)

Rogue Endeavour

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes

28/1

Foaled March 22. Dandy Man colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Galeron and 1¼m-1½m winner Goldenfield, both useful. Dam unraced. Interesting to see what the market has to say.

Form:

(4)

Seaplane

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: P & O Cole

5/1

Foaled April 16. Golden Horn colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 14.5f Sumo Sam and 2-y-o 1¼m winner Sun God. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 1½m winner Stay Alert. Will probably need more time and distance.

Form:

Nad Alshiba Green¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: M Appleby

11/1

Once-raced filly. 10/3, sixth of 8 in maiden at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) on debut 15 days ago. Should have more to offer with that run under her belt.

Form: 6

(5)

Santa Savana^h1

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: B R Millman

12/1

Foaled February 28. Havana Grey filly. Dam, winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner), closely related to smart winner up to 1m Oasis Dancer and half-sister to smart 1m/9f winner Smart Enough. Wears hood. Doesn't appeal as a probable first-time-out winner.

Aegean Sea

Weight: 9-7| Age: 2

Forecasts

Beccali (8/11), Aegean Sea (9/2), Seaplane (5/1), Jorge Alvares (11/2), Nad Alshiba Green (11/1), Santa Savana (12/1), Ran Amok (14/1), Rogue Endeavour (28/1), Balzarini (100/1), Backer Bilk (150/1)

The obvious starting point is BECCALI, a typically well-bred Godolphin newcomer and it will be an ominous sign for his rivals if he's strong in the betting. Jorge Alvares shaped with far greater promise than his SP suggested he might at York recently and he is second choice ahead of another likely-looking newcomer in Aegean Sea.
