5/1 |
Altareq
Brother to 1m2f Listed winner Al Asifah; weakened out of serious contention in both the Wood Ditton at Newmarket (1m, good; behind two of these) and novice at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW; 6-4 favourite, neck ahead of the promising Respond) 15 days later; still showed fair form but a fair bit better will be required to win this.

250/1 |
Bedford
Useful pedigree; late foal; 50-1, hooded and taken down early for novice at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) 15 days ago but he was very slowly away from the widest draw and always behind, well adrift of Altareq.

Caughtredhanded
Has a useful pedigree for 1m4f; weak 14-1 for the Wood Ditton at Newmarket (1m, good) one month ago, green and never in a threatening position but he did close into fifth of 15, a neck in front of Altareq and just over 2l behind Hinchinbrooke; this extra 2f will help and he could be a big improver if he's learned from that debut experience.

Gamrai
Closely related to 7f/1m winner Aljazzi (Group 2; RPR 116) and half-brother to four winners, including Majestic Noor (1m2f; RPR 103); dam 1m2f Listed winner (RPR 104); 4-6 for novice at Southwell (1m, AW) in November and made the running but ended up third of nine; cheekpieces go on; should improve.

Hinchinbrooke
By Cracksman out of a 6f 2yo winner (including Group 3; RPR 109); 33-1, bang there from 3f out to over 1f out when fourth of 15 in the Wood Ditton for newcomers at Newmarket (1m, good) one month ago, weakening but still finishing just over 2l in front of Caughtredhanded and Altareq; going up in trip asks a question but he has among the best form and looks promising.

Meblesh
Late foal by Sea The Stars; promising third of 11 in novice event at Doncaster (7f, good) in March would make him a leading contender but beaten 18l when fourth of nine over C&D (good) 12 days later; needs to bounce back.

Minnesota
46,000gns foal by Without Parole; first foal; dam 1m AW winner (RPR 79), half-sister to Italian Listed-placed 6f-1m winner Rabiosa Fiore, out of 2m-winning half-sister to 7f Listed winner Ibn Malik; gelded and his stable also runs Meblesh, so the market should give big clues.

Respond
185,000euros foal, 130,000gns yearling; bred to stay 1m2f+; 14-1 and hooded, slowly away in steadily run novice at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) 15 days ago but he stayed on past six of his rivals to finish fourth of 11, a neck behind Altareq; also hung under pressure that day but it was a promising debut.
