Local IQ EBF Novice Stakes (GBB Race) (Div 1)

Foaled February 2. 120,000 gns yearling, Space Blues colt. Dam, 1m winner, closely related to useful 2-y-o 1m winner Starbright. Worth monitoring in market on debut.

Finished down the field in maiden (125/1) at this course (6f, firm) on debut 27 days ago and is likely to need more time.

Foaled April 27. 82,000 gns yearling, New Bay colt. Half-brother to useful 9.6f winner Improvista. Trainer’s newcomers command respect.

Posted fairly-useful form when second on debut at Newmarket (5f) in April. May have been unsuited by firmer ground when below that level at same course since and better expected here.

Foaled February 26. €78,000 foal, €180,000 yearling, Acclamation colt. Brother to useful winner up to 1¼m Claim The Crown and closely related to Italian 2-y-o 1m winner Valore Speciale. Makes plenty of appeal on paper.

Foaled February 4. 18,000 gns foal, 55,000 gns yearling, Sergei Prokofiev colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 5f winner Tagline and useful winner up to 6f Koepp. Interesting newcomer.

Foaled February 8. £42,000 yearling, Mehmas gelding. Dam, 2-y-o 7f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 8.6f Khaloosy.

Foaled January 29. 125,000 gns yearling, Lope Y Fernandez colt. Half-brother to 5f winner Lochaber and 2-y-o 5f winner Enchanting Empress. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Not taken lightly on debut.
