Chief Of State²⁰⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Cam Hardie| T: B Haslam

50/1

Twice-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 13 in maiden at Navan (5f, good to soft, 200/1) when last seen 6 months ago. Up in trip on debut for new yard and it's best to look elsewhere.

Form: 0/8-

(7)

Fast Track Harry²⁰³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Finley Marsh| T: C G Cox| OR: 90| DWS

5/6

Twice-raced winner. 9¼ lengths fifth of 8 to La Bellota in listed race (15/2) at this C&D (heavy) in October. Has since undergone a wind op and he's the one to beat.

Form: 15-

(9)

Big Apple Jack²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Lewis Chalkley⁽⁷⁾| T: M & D Easterby

100/1

Twice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 13 in novice (100/1) at this C&D (good) 22 days ago. Another who will be of greater interest in handicaps further down the line.

Form: 40

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho

33/1

Once-raced maiden. Fifteenth of 16 in maiden at this course (7f, soft, 80/1) on debut. Off 6 months and he's hard to warm to.

80/1

Twice-raced maiden. 40/1, fifth of 8 in novice at Redcar (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Likely to need more time.

16/1

€200,000 yearling, 20,000 gns 2-y-o, Siyouni gelding. Brother to 1½m winner Let Life Happen and half-brother to 3 winners, including 1¼m winners Tucson Cloud and Farout. Yard rarely strikes with newcomers.

Twilight Ice

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: J Tate

13/2

68,000 gns foal, £160,000 yearling, Twilight Son colt. Dam, 7f winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to useful winner up to 1½m Queen of Ice. Lots to like on paper and he's one to monitor closely in the betting.

Zubaru^t1¹⁹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Shepherd| T: George ScottWS

15/8

Promising type. Second of 11 in novice (33/1) at Newmarket (6f, good to soft) on sole start at 2 yrs. Open to improvement and he's one to consider in a first-time tongue strap. Has undergone a wind op.

Form: 2-

Alfa Sea Breeze¹⁹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: A Elliott| T: I Furtado

50/1

33/1

Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 8 in novice at Pontefract (6f, good, 11/1) on debut 33 days ago, never nearer. Yet another for whom handicaps will likely provide greater opportunities in due course.

Form: 6

Forecasts

Fast Track Harry (5/6), Zubaru (15/8), Twilight Ice (13/2), Storm Passage (15/2), Implied Volatility (16/1), Glamorous Angela (16/1), Minshaar (33/1), Brave Bob (33/1), Alfa Sea Breeze (50/1), Chief Of State (50/1), Canaria Sun (80/1), Big Apple Jack (100/1)

FAST TRACK HARRY beat a couple of next-time-out winners when scoring on debut at Newbury in September and the testing conditions were probably against him over this C&D the following month. He has since undergone a wind op and should prove a tough nut to crack. Zubaru is marginally preferred to likely-looking newcomer Twilight Ice for forecast purposes.
