Settings
Selected odds by:
Fair gelding. 5/1, last of 8 in nursery at Newbury (6f, heavy) 14 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Blinkers on 1st time. Claims on best form.
|
Promising type who made a winning racecourse bow at Newmarket (6f) in May. Sole subsequent start in Milan likely best excused and must enter calculations here. Gelded since last run.
|
Twice-raced maiden. 100/1, eighth of 11 in maiden at Southwell (7.1f) 7 days ago. Makes limited appeal.
|
Foaled March 4. Lope De Vega colt. Closely related to 5f winner Alwaatn Sound and half-brother to several winners, including smart winner up to 6f Queen Kindly. Makes plenty of appeal on paper.
|
Related to plenty of winners and posted promising fourth of 12 in novice at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut 33 days ago. Likely to improve and is one for shortlist.
|
Twice-raced maiden. Disappointed on heavy ground at Leicester latest but had run with promise when third on debut at Yarmouth (6f) previously and can't be discounted.
|
Foaled May 23. €75,000 yearling, Goken colt. Brother to useful 2-y-o 5.5f winner Lovamour and winner up to 6f Lova and closely related to useful 2-y-o 5f winner Kenlova, all in France. Interesting newcomer.
|
Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in maiden (11/2) at Newcastle (6f) on debut 11 days ago, merely closing up late. Should progress.
|
Twice-raced maiden. 125/1, eighth of 12 in maiden at Kempton (7f) 17 days ago. Likely best watched.
|
Twice-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, fourth of 11 in novice (20/1) at Newmarket (6f, good to soft) 8 days ago. May need more time.

Forecasts
Initial Blue (2/1), Desert Champion (4/1), Spitzbergen (9/2), Camera Shy (9/2), Rock Hunter (15/2), Sarteano (16/1), Lexington Rocket (16/1), Always Eternal (66/1), Friday Again (100/1), Crest Of Light (125/1)
INITIAL BLUE should have learnt plenty from his encouraging Wolverhampton debut and gets the nod. Newmarket-winner Camera Shy remains with potential and may provide the chief threat, whilst Desert Champion and Spitzbergen are both of interest on their racecourse bows.
