Verdict: This should concern TARRIANCE and Gravitas both of whom made encouraging debuts. The selection contested the deeper race.

Tarriance

Jockey: P J McDonald Trainer: Andrew Balding Age/Wt: 3/8-13 F: 3

10 tips

8/15

Comment: Frankel colt out of a Group 3 winner; easy to back at Leicester (1m2f, good; 22-1) but led two out and only faded late on; the form of that race is already working out quite well and this is easier.

13/8

Comment: 50,000gns yearling; 7-2 at Ripon (1m4f, good) and had he been that bit wiser might well have floored the long odds-on favourite (stablemate of Tarriance); that was a promising start and must hold every chance.

Comment: 200,000gns breeze-up buy; beaten a length at Ascot (5f, good to firm) where he only wilted late on after racing prominently; the winner is now 2-2 for Godolphin and presumably bound for Royal Ascot; strong contender.

Comment: Bought for 360,000gns at the Craven Breeze-Up Sale in April and represents the same connections of last year's winner Shareholder, another expensive breeze-up recruit who went on to win the Norfolk at Royal Ascot; this colt is probably pretty smart.

Raakeb

Jockey: S Hitchcott Trainer: Richard Hannon Age/Wt: 2/9-4 F: 1

Comment: Won three handicaps last year, two on turf over 7f; back to something approaching his best when narrowly missing out at Yarmouth ten days ago (7f, good to firm); off his last winning mark.
