The filly TITIAN BLUE could be just the type Mick Appleby excels with and she earns the vote on her stable debut. The well-bred Suhub has the potential to be better than her opening mark and is feared most ahead of class-dropper High On Hope. Mystical Storm and Organ could also run well.[Ben Hutton]

Made it 0-9 when eighth of nine at Chester a fortnight ago but wasn't beaten far having been drawn wide and suffered interference; in good form previously (including here) and could be thereabouts now back down in grade.
Won off this mark at Kempton (7f, AW) last November but hasn't shone on her three starts since; crashed through the rails on the way to post and withdrawn at Newmarket on Saturday (33-1 at the time).
Has run well to finish third on all three starts, over C&D on debut and on reappearance at Redcar (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; shouldn't be overfaced by his initial mark and he's open to improvement.
Won on handicap debut at Kempton (7f, AW) in March before fair fifth at Lingfield (6f, AW); couldn't get into it on turf debut at Chester a fortnight ago but was drawn widest and is not written off.
Runner-up at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last September on second start and another good run when third at Kempton (1m, AW) in October; her dam Nazeef was top-class and she has plenty of potential off her opening mark.
Promise among his first three starts last May-July and he returned from an absence with a fair third on handicap debut at Newmarket (7f, good) last month; can improve if settling better and he's one to consider.
Runner-up on debut at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) last July then won at Newcastle (7f, AW); disappointing on his next three outings but the subsequent break may have helped and a case can be made on his early promise.
Won a maiden at Chepstow (6f, good to soft) last June on his second start; down the field in a Windsor handicap and Irish sales race the next twice, but reappears having been gelded and he may be able to get back on track.
Won on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last month and retains potential, but he was soundly beaten on his recent turf debut at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and needs to prove his effectiveness on grass.
Won at Redcar (6f, soft) last October on third and final 2yo start and reappeared with staying-on fourth in Pontefract handicap (6f, good); well beaten at Southwell since but that was his AW debut and he's a possible improver now back on turf and upped in trip.
Won last summer on her first two starts and took a step back in the right direction when fifth at Pontefract on last month's reappearance; however, she's been well beaten the last twice; visor removed after one use; non-runner.
Runner-up for William Haggas last year on two of her first three starts (6f/7f, good/AW) and soft ground may not have suited on nursery debut when last seen; sold for 45,000gns in October and new trainer does extremely well with recruits from other yards; could be on a good mark for stable debut.
