Saint Terry^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: A W Carroll

80/1

Has shown little in three starts, most recently fifth of 6 in a maiden at Chester (66/1) 14 days ago when down markedly in trip in first-time hood. Needs significant improvement.

Form: 45

Swiss Lightning⁸⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: J & T Gosden| D

5/2

Much improved from heavy-ground debut when winning a 5-runner maiden back at Newmarket (7f, good) by a head (2/1) 87 days ago, running green but prevailing. Remains lightly raced with potential to build further.

Form: 8-1

(9)

Aspull^h1

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox

13/2

Invincible Spirit colt making debut for trainer with a solid record with first-time runners. From the family of useful 6f winner Blackrod and dam was a 1m winner. Hooded.

(8)

Dreamcrafter²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Georgia Dobie| T: Craig Benton

100/1

Fifth of 11 on AW debut in March and last of 7 at Bath (100/1) 28 days ago, unsuited by shorter trip. Return to 7f could help.

Form: 57

Palio Di Siena^t²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: William Carver| T: J A Osborne

7/4

Finished second of 11 in a maiden at Ffos Las (66/1) 20 days ago, travelled best and briefly led inside final furlong. Showed considerable promise on debut despite big odds.

Form: 2

(7)

Signore Enzo

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: K Bishop

100/1

€7,000 yearling. Inns Of Court gelding. Half-brother to 7f winner Forrest Prince, who won as a 2-y-o at the same trip. Dam was successful at 6f/7f.

Form:

Silent Storm³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jim Crowley| T: C Hills

85/40

Made a promising debut when 4th of 11 in a 7f novice at Newbury (22/1). Fifth of 10 in novice at Windsor (5/1) 33 days ago, slowly into stride and raced off the pace, never landing a blow. Should improve for the drop back to 7f and worth another chance.

Form: 45

Valentine Boy

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jack Dace⁽⁷⁾| T: L A Dace

40/1

Havana Grey gelding making racecourse debut. Dam was a winner over 7f/1m.

Forecasts

Palio Di Siena (7/4), Silent Storm (85/40), Swiss Lightning (5/2), Tardaff (9/2), Aspull (13/2), Valentine Boy (40/1), Saint Terry (80/1), Signore Enzo (100/1), Dreamcrafter (100/1)

SILENT STORM should be better judged on his promising debut and can improve for the drop back to 7f after being poorly placed at Windsor. Palio di Siena showed considerable promise at Ffos Las, travelling best and briefly leading. Newmarket winner Swiss Lightning has to be respected also.
