Parole D'oro²⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: M L W Bell

2/1

Without Parole colt who confirmed debut promise when landing 7-runner novice at Epsom (7f) in August, needing some firm pressure but leaving the impression he always had matters in hand. Very much the type to progress further as a 3-y-o and he's shortlisted.

Form: 21-

(2)

Teroomm¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian| D

5/6

Shaped up well in an AW maiden that's worked out pretty well and, upped in trip/switched to turf, took a step forward after 4 months off when taking 9-runner maiden at Bath (8f, good to firm, 5/6) 18 days ago, keeping on well. In top hands and he rates a useful prospect. Player.

Form: 4-1

(6)

Four Fifty¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S H James| T: Craig Lidster

9/2

Ulysses colt who made appeal on paper and didn't need to be asked for everything when landing 12-runner Newcastle novice (7f) on debut 12 days ago, leading final 1f and well on top finish. Very much the type to build on that now switched to turf.

Form: 1

Drumcondra¹⁸⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: O J Orr| T: D Carroll

125/1

Showcasing gelding from the family of high-class 1¼m winner Fascinating Rock. Showed much more than on debut when fourth of 6 in a Haydock novice (1m, heavy) back in October but feasible to think handicaps will be more his bag after this.

Form: 94-

(3)

Very Muddy Waters¹⁹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: D Carroll

25/1

Showcasing gelding. Dam, 1¼m-1½m winner. Sowed promise whilst highlighting he takes after his dam when a keeping on second in 11-runner novice at Redcar (7f) on debut in October. Increase in trip promises to suit on return and he's open to improvement.

Form: 2-

(4)

Taylormade Lad¹⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods

100/1

Gregorian gelding who showed only greenness when eighth of 11 in novice at Redcar (7f, soft, 200/1) on debut in November. Possible he'll be brought along with handicaps in mind and he's passed over returning from 168 days off.

Form: 8-

Having shaped with plenty of promise on his only start at 2 yrs, TEROOMM duly showed improved form to make a winning return in a Bath maiden (1m) 18 days ago. From a talented family and rating the type to progress further, he gets the nod ahead of the similarly progressive Parole d'Oro, who looks sure to be suited by this step up in trip on return. Four Fifty, who impressed when scoring on debut at Newcastle 12 days ago, deserves consideration, too.
