Alkuwarrior²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: Donagh Murphy⁽⁷⁾| T: D Donovan| D

12/1

Narrow winner of 5f Yarmouth maiden in April. Kept busy and not beaten another rival since, out of his depth in the National Stakes at Sandown 23 days ago. This is easier under 7 lb claimer.

€16,000 yearling, £360,000 2-y-o, Profitable colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 7.4f/1m winner World Title and 7f/1m winner Big Dream. Seventh of 8 in novice (10/3) at Ripon (5f, good to firm) on debut 17 days ago, very green. It's to be hoped he shows a lot more here.

6/5

150,000 gns yearling, Bungle Inthejungle colt. Brother to useful winner up to 6f Sergeant Wilko. Fifth of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f, well-backed 15/8) on debut 25 days ago, doing too much too soon. Open to improvement and a likely contender in this company.

Jungle Monarch (6/5), Kinnalargy (3/1), O Fortuna (7/1), Great Profit (15/2), Wonderful Friend (10/1), Alkuwarrior (12/1), Powernap (40/1)

JUNGLE MONARCH was a rare disappointment for Karl Burke when backed on debut at Wolverhampton but he probably did too much too soon and is worth another chance in this very winnable novice. Kinnalargy and Great Profit are also expensive once-raced colts from top Northern yards who could do a lot better. Penalised winner Alkuwarrior drops back in class but is almost certainly vulnerable.
