Shayem
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-3| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke
Foaled February 24. King of Change half-brother to 7f winner Negwah. Dam, unraced, closely related to useful 1¼m/11f winner Delicatezza out of useful 1¼m winner Wickwing. Newcomer from a top stable who would need considering if the betting speaks in his favour.

Forecasts

Beny Nahar (13/8), Red Spells Danger (11/4), What's The Plan (7/2), Shayem (5/1), Up The Agenda (16/1), Act Of Honor (25/1), Risk Averse Rebel (50/1), Lynxman (100/1)

19:25 Haydock - 8 August 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Oisin Murphy takes over from a 5 lb apprentice on BENY NAHAR who should take a bit of stopping on the back of a promising opening effort at Newcastle. What's The Plan and Red Spells Danger also shaped well on their debuts and look the obvious dangers unless the betting speaks in the favour of Karl Burke newcomer Shayem.
