Balticum³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: R L Moore| T: Harry Charlton

28/1

Makes some appeal on pedigree but was a big price and didn't feature at Yarmouth first time out. Should have learned from that but still likely to get outclassed.

Form: 6

(8)

Byblos²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: K Shoemark| T: J & T Gosden| BF

7/2

Has an excellent pedigree and, having shaped well under considerate handling on debut, upped his game when runner-up at Newcastle last time. Further progress on the cards and should be involved.

Form: 42

I Am I Said

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: R Kingscote| T: R M Beckett

20/1

Foaled April 8. 72,000 gns foal, 110,000 gns yearling, Almanzor colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart winner up to 10.2f Enfjaar and useful 7f-9f winner Sweet Enough. One to note.

Knockabaroff¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: George Scott

80/1

Well related and there was something to work on when third in a novice at Southwell 15 days ago, not having a hard time. Likely to better that at some point.

Form: 3

(3)

Our 'Enery

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding

28/1

Foaled May 8. 140,000 gns yearling, Sea The Stars colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart 1¼m/11f winner Acheso and useful 1¼m/11f winner Auyantepui, won Oaks d'Italia. Dam 1¼m winner. Interesting newcomer on paper.

Form:

Present Times²⁷

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

8/15

Expensive Sea The Stars gelding who offered plenty of promise when runner-up to a good prospect over C&D last time. Can put that track experience to use and looks the one to beat.

Form: 2

(1)

Renato

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Tom Marquand| T: M Botti

25/1

Foaled April 24. 65,000 gns yearling, Sea The Stars colt. Brother to 3 winners, including smart Italian/US winner up to 1½m Call Me Love and 1m winner Cloud Free. Dam Italian 7f winner.

Sourdough²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Rob Hornby| T: H Morrison

66/1

Closely related to useful 1¼m-1½m winner Stay Well. Minor promise when fifth at Bath on debut and will likely need more time.

Form: 5

(4)

Too Don Juan²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Hector Crouch| T: R M Beckett

7/1

Stable's juveniles are going well and there was encouragement to be gleaned from his fourth at Salisbury 20 days ago. More to come. Yard also have newcomer I Am I Said.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Present Times (8/15), Byblos (7/2), Too Don Juan (7/1), I Am I Said (20/1), Renato (25/1), Balticum (28/1), Our 'Enery (28/1), Sourdough (66/1), Knockabaroff (80/1)

Although already gelded, PRESENT TIMES showed up well when runner-up over C&D on debut and, with improvement forthcoming, he's fancied to edge out Byblos, who is closely matched with him on form. I Am I Said is a newcomer to note.
