Comment: Suffered a near miss at Southwell (7f; clear of the third) and raced up with a strong gallop when sixth of 15 at Doncaster (good); that wasn't a bad effort and this represents a drop in grade.

Comment: Kingman colt out of a smart Galileo mare and cost 600,000gns; with all that in mind it's been an underwhelming start in 7f/1m novices, the latest at Southwell; has been slow to break in both races so still learning the job, and therefore a likely improver at some point.

Jockey: Marco Ghiani Trainer: Marco Botti Age/Wt: 2/9-5

10/1

Comment: 11,000gns yearling; first foal; dam 7f/1m AW winner (RPR 62), half-sister to winners Victory Chime (1m2f Listed) and Pontchateau (useful 1m1f-1m3f); 6f looks on the sharp side given his pedigree.

Caitrinho

Jockey: Charles Bishop Trainer: Eve Johnson Houghton Age/Wt: 2/9-7

11/1

Comment: 24,000gns yearling; ninth foal; closely related to three winners including Maaward (7f/1m; RPR 101) and Mignolino (5f-7.5f; 94); dam Italian 6f winner and half-sister to 5f 2yo Group 3 winner; stable can ready a newcomer; one to note in the betting.

Faithful Dream

Jockey: Alistair Rawlinson Trainer: Michael Appleby Age/Wt: 2/9-5 F: 6

14/1

Comment: Stable's 2yos can improve plenty on their first run but this colt was slowly away at Beverley and hung late on, ultimately trailing the winner by 9l; odds of 9-2 suggests that better was expected of him.

Comment: Drawn wide enough when well beaten at Chester last week but even a repeat of his second at Southwell (5f) might not be enough to topple Logi Bear, although was slowly away that day; entitled to have some say, however, now stepping up to 6f.

Saeculamation

Jockey: Harry Burns Trainer: George Margarson Age/Wt: 2/9-7

Athena's Fortune

Jockey: Callum Hutchinson Trainer: Stuart Williams Age/Wt: 2/9-0

Comment: 18,000gns yearling; third foal; half-sister to French 1m AW winner Bolzano; dam French/German 1m3f/1m4f winner, half-sister to 1m Group 1 winner Prosperous Voyage; makes sense to check the betting given her yard but may need further and she's the only filly.

King's Courtier

Jockey: Dylan Hogan Trainer: Julia & Shelley Birkett Age/Wt: 2/9-5

Comment: Useful form in these colours for Michael Bell when highly tried on occasions; big things were expected of him in juvenile hurdles but his form tapered off; this is a drop in grade from his fourth here at the Guineas meeting (1m4f) but he was beaten 8l and connections now turn to a claiming rider, which probably makes sense.
