I Can Dance¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: W Buick| T: C Johnston

1/1

55,000 gns yearling, Bated Breath colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Feigning Madness and 2-y-o 7f winner Dance In The Grass, both useful. Second of 5 in novice race at Newmarket (7/1) 11 days ago, led until headed inside final furlong, kept on. Sure to improve up in trip.

Form: 2

Last Verse⁶⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Rob Hornby| T: A M Balding

7/4

€75,000 yearling (private sale), Camelot colt. Half-brother to several winners, including very smart winner up to 10.3f Armory. Good start in 7f novices at Haydock and York and likely to progress further as his stamina is drawn out.

Form: 35

Lopeo³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: D Menuisier

4/1

€150,000 Lope de Vega colt. Brother to 2 winners, notably useful 7f winner Rolica. Fourth of 5 in a maiden at Chester (11/4) 30 days ago, showing some ability but never threatening. Should do better in time.

Form: 4

Forecasts

I Can Dance (1/1), Last Verse (7/4), Lopeo (4/1)

I CAN DANCE shaped with considerable promise when second at Newmarket recently and looks sure to improve for this step up in trip. If this doesn't become messy he can go one better. Last Verse is feared most.
