Nahi¹²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Rossa Ryan| T: C G Cox

4/1

12/1, fourth of 12 in maiden at Nottingham (5f, good) on debut in June. It's taken a bit of time to get him back to the track but it was a promising first run and he should have more to offer.

Form: 4

(2)

Newlyn School²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas

15/2

From a top yard but little better than modest form in 2 outings on turf 11 weeks apart. Blinkers worn last time are quickly discarded.

Form: 45

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott

80/1

40,000 gns Showcasing gelding. Half-brother to winner up to 7f Hector Loza and 1½m-1¾m winner Dame Sarra. Dam unraced out of useful winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 7f winner) Grace O'Malley. The betting should guide to expectations.

33/1

40/1, eighth of 13 in maiden at Newbury (6f, good to soft) on debut 12 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot in a short time.

Forecasts

West Acre (5/4), Gallant (5/2), Nahi (4/1), Lazzar (13/2), Newlyn School (15/2), Kosometsuke (22/1), Panama Black (33/1), Just Romeo (33/1), So Darn Hot (50/1), Packetofbiscuits (80/1), Blue Seeker (100/1), Manara (100/1)

WEST ACRE looked good on his Newcastle debut and is up to defying a penalty for George Scott. Nahi and Gallant both displayed promise on debut and can give the selection most to think about.
