200/1

Narrow winner of 5f Yarmouth maiden in April and not disgraced despite coming in last of 6 in 5f Bath novice 6 days ago. This is a tough ask though.

15/8

Built on debut promise to readily land the odds in 5-runner novice at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Well in the mix with more to come.

9/4

Mehmas colt created an excellent impression when making a winning debut in 11-runner novice at York (6f, good) 14 days ago, showing a good turn of foot. Open to plenty of progress and he holds leading claims.

4/1

Kameko colt took a big step forward from his debut sixth when landing 13-runner maiden at Doncaster (5f, firm) 12 days ago. Can improve again. Possibilities.

Supremacy filly bagged 5f Bath novice before following up in 4-runner conditions stakes at Salisbury (5f, firm) 25 days ago. Open to improvement and shouldn't be underestimated.

10/1

Kodi Bear filly shaped well when second of 6 in novice at Newmarket (6f, good to firm, 12/1) on her debut 12 days ago, travelling well long way. Capable of better. Not ruled out.

Forecasts

Clear Force (15/8), First Legion (9/4), Kamakameleon (4/1), Sayidah Hard Spun (7/1), Eskimo Pie (10/1), Anthelia (25/1), Alkuwarrior (200/1)

FIRST LEGION looked a very good prospect when going in at the first time of asking at York earlier in the month and is fancied to take this step up in class in his stride. Karl Burke's stylish Ripon scorer Clear Force appeals as the main danger to Richard Hannon's Mehmas colt, while Eskimo Pie, Sayidah Hard Spun and Kamakameleon all bring a fair bit of potential too and command respect in a good renewal of the National Stakes.
