4/9

650,000 gns breeze-up purchase by Havana Grey. Dam 5f winner (including at 2 yrs). 4/1, spared a hard race when fourth of 13 in novice at Newbury (7f, soft) on debut 14 days ago. Has plenty about him physically and potentially.

Ecclefechan⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Christian Howarth| T: J Ryan| OR: 77

22/1

Best effort when close second in novice at Musselburgh (5f) but was always on the back foot in a competitive nursery at York (6f, good) next time. Not discounted back in calmer waters and up in trip.

Forecasts

Castle Rock (4/9), Sierra Sands (7/2), We're Goosers (13/2), Ecclefechan (22/1), Savvy Disko (28/1)

SIERRA SANDS found only one too good in a field of newcomers at Leicester 12 days ago and shades the vote over Castle Rock, who can be expected to build on his debut fourth at Newbury.
