Huscal²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: James Doyle| T: C Hills

5/6

Saxon Warrior colt. Dam, unraced, closely related to useful 6f winner Gravity Flow. Shaped best of the newcomers when sixth of 14 in maiden at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) on debut last month. Looks sure to improve and sound claims here.

40/1

Foaled February 19. Territories colt. 14/1, green under pressure when eighth of 10 in novice at Pontefract (6f, good) on debut 38 days ago. This promises to reveal more.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: S A Gray| T: M & D Easterby

18/1

Foaled April 23. €70,000 2-y-o, Earthlight colt. 11/1, shaped better than bare result when ninth of 18 in a York novice (7f) on debut 31 days ago, moving sweetly for a long way before weakening. Looks the type to do better.

Form: 9

Watchmaker¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: D Egan| T: M L W Bell

80/1

Twice-raced colt. Twelfth of 13 in novice at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 22/1) 14 days ago, always behind. Bred more for stamina than speed and longer trips in due course promise to be more his bag.

Form: 50

(10)

Cape Sovereign²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan

5/1

€50,000 2-y-o, Ten Sovereigns colt. Fair form both starts to date, third behind a couple of above-average ones in 13-runner Redcar novice (6f) 26 days ago, headed halfway but keeping on. Entitled to be thereabouts.

Form: 43

(5)

Brave Byreflection

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

25/1

Foaled January 21. 28,000 gns yearling, Mohaather filly. Dam, useful French 2-y-o 1m winner (stayed 1¼m), half-sister to smart 6f-1½m winner Diamond Vendome, won Grand Prix de Vichy.

Dubai Magic²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D Tudhope| T: J Tate

8/1

Twice-raced filly. Showed a bit more than on debut when sixth of 13 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 22/1) 28 days ago, fading final 1f. Likely she can do better, particularly when tackling nurseries.

Form: 96

Lunar Force¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 67

7/1

Been kept busy in recent weeks and ran best race yet when close-up third in maiden at Beverley (5f) on penultimate start. Not disgraced when fourth of 7 in maiden at Ayr (6f, good) 16 days ago and her experience will count for a good deal here.

Forecasts

Huscal (5/6), Cape Sovereign (5/1), Lunar Force (7/1), Dubai Magic (8/1), Calibos (14/1), Keats House (18/1), Brave Byreflection (25/1), Galway Sands (25/1), Orlando Magic (33/1), Invincible Love (40/1), Watchmaker (80/1)

HUSCAL shaped best of the newcomers when finishing midfield in a Goodwood maiden (6f) 4 weeks ago and, with progress anticipated, Charlie Hills's colt is fancied to build on that and come out on top. Cape Sovereign may emerge as the chief threat, with newcomer Calibos and Keats House ,who shaped encouragingly on debut at York, others to keep an eye on.
