Lordsbridge Blu²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: R Havlin| T: S Woods

9/2

Havana Grey gelding. Half-brother to 6f winner Rebel Redemption and 1m winner Lordsbridge Girl. Dam useful 7f winner. 25/1, fourth of 11 in maiden at Yarmouth (7f, good) on debut 29 days ago, closing all way to line. That race has thrown up winners and he's open to progress.

€10,500 foal, €24,000 yearling, 40,000 gns 2-y-o, Cracksman gelding. Half-brother to winner up to 2m Rich Belief. Dam maiden (likely to have proven best up to 1¼m) half-sister to smart 1¼m winner Excellent Result. Suspect he'll come on for this.

11/2

$65,000 yearling, Hard Spun colt. Dam US 6f/6.5f winner. Third of 9 in novice (9/1) at Newmarket (8f, good) on debut 27 days ago. That looks decent form and he can improve.

Form: 3

Under Siege³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: A M Balding| OR: 94| BF

2/5

Boasts some strong form having chased home Dante winner Economics on debut at Newbury and then Goodwood Group 3 winner Lead Artist at York before an eye-catching run at Windsor (3/10), having a hopeless task from his position. Disappointing if he can't get the job done here.

Form: 223

Dors Delight³⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Sanderson⁽³⁾| T: D K Ivory

125/1

Well beaten in 2 runs last year.

Forecasts

Under Siege (2/5), Lordsbridge Blu (9/2), Baraq (5/1), Shimmering Spin (11/2), Calanthe (16/1), Lightningboltzoom (33/1), Pottersmattyeeehaa (80/1), Apache Canyon (100/1), Drifts Away (100/1), Dors Delight (125/1)

UNDER SIEGE looks useful and boasts some strong form so it will be disappointing if he can't get the job done in this company. Lordsbridge Blu, an eye-catcher on debut at Yarmouth, and Shimmering Spin, are the dangers.
