2/1

Comment: Both starts on good ground at Beverley over 5f; made a winning debut in April and built on that when a respectable fourth in the Two Year Old Trophy in May; kept on that day, suggesting this step up to 6f should suit; respected under the penalty.

Comment: £25,000 yearling and brother to two winning sprinters; not beaten far on debut over 5f at Carlisle (good to soft; first three have all won since) at the end of May and can improve for this longer trip with the benefit of that experience; might be the answer.

Comment: Not beaten far when 66-1 and last of six at Beverley (5f, good; Tropical Dreamer fourth) on his debut in May, but didn't build on that when beaten nearly 6l at Chester (6f, good to soft) 18 days ago; the ground might have been an excuse that day and he's not ruled out.

Comment: Yard isn't renowned for juveniles but he made a fairly encouraging debut when tongue tied and fourth of 11 at Carlisle (6f, soft; 16-1) just over a fortnight ago; some signs of inexperience that day and he ought to be capable of better.

Horu Kanu

12/1

Comment: By Sands Of Mali; first foal; dam 6f 2yo winner on her August debut (only start; RPR 81), half-sister to US stakes-placed 5.5f-8.5f winner Basha, out of useful 8.5f-1m4f winner; debutant but the yard can ready one and his second-season sire is having a big year, getting the Commonwealth Cup winner at Royal Ascot under a fortnight ago; watch the market.

Circle Of Trust

Jockey: K Stott Trainer: Kevin Ryan Age/Wt: 2/9-4

Comment: Already gelded; 30,000euros foal, 22,000euros yearling; second foal; Dark Angel half-brother to Polish 1m winner Selena Gold; dam well beaten 1m2f (RPR 45), sister to winners Luis Fernandez (6f including 2yo) and Time Constraints (1m), half-sister to 5f Group 1 Abbaye winner Benbaun; market to guide on this debut.

Magistery

Jockey: Connor Beasley Trainer: Michael Dods Age/Wt: 2/8-13 F: 85

20/1

Comment: Attracted some support but blew the start and hung left on her debut at Redcar in May; stepped up when fifth of seven over C&D (good to firm) three weeks later; further improvement needed.

Comment: £20,000 breeze-up 2yo; bit of promise on his debut at Carlisle (good to soft) in May but he took a step backwards when beaten nearly 10l at Redcar (also 6f, good to firm) 11 days ago; probably one for nurseries.

Off Spin

Jockey: D Allan Trainer: Tim Easterby Age/Wt: 3/9-4 F: 355- OR: 71

12/1

Comment: He made a promising start to his career when third of nine at Ripon last August (1m, good) but his two subsequent efforts were less convincing; gelded during his nine-month absence; the debut form gives him a squeak.

Comment: Group 3 win as a 2yo (7f, heavy) but progress levelled off for former stable; down the field at Epsom on his stable debut 25 days ago and 6f on quick ground might be an insufficient test.

Comment: Running well over 5f this year, winning at Pontefract and Ripon this spring (both good ground); has come up short off a BHA mark in the 80s the last twice and vulnerable again back up at 6f.

Verdict: Maybe Lady Of The Garr's Wetherby's race can provide the answer. CALAFRIO is selected to come out on top of the five who reoppose.

Comment: Won his only race when picking up a classified over C&D (good to firm) last August but he's also been second three times here and got no luck when runner-up in a division of this last year; also hit traffic when beaten just over 1l in Lady Of The Garr's race at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) last time; firmly on the shortlist with Oisin Murphy taking over.
