Ubetterseethis had an excuse last time and surely won't be long in getting off the mark, while Solar Cooper can likely step up on his encouraging debut last month. However, the Leicester maiden FAROUGH contested might be worth following and he's taken to go in at the second time of asking. The market should be helpful regarding a clutch of interesting newcomers that are headed by Lyrical Song, Big Fun and the filly Lily Pearl.[Richard Russell]

Already gelded son of Showcasing; £56,000 yearling; February (first) foal; dam (RPR 97) won on her December 2yo debut (1m, AW), half-sister to useful winners Stage Name (8.6f) and Abolish (5.7f-7f), is granddaughter of 1m Listed winner; the most expensive of these at auction and yard can ready a newcomer.
February foal; £42,000 yearling; half-brother to 6f AW 2yo winner Maui Breeze; got the message from halfway when sixth of 15 in a useful Leicester maiden (5f, good; 10-1) that has thrown up three winners and others to have run well subsequently; extra furlong should suit and he's open to plenty of improvement; yard 2-4 with 2yos here in the last five years.
£38,000 Acclamation yearling; late-March (third) foal; half-brother to 5f winner She's Smart (RPR 78); dam 6f AW 2yo winner (third start), half-sister to winners Buccellati (1m4f/1m5f Group 3), La Petite Chinoise (Scandinavian 1m4f Listed) and Golden Stud (Italian 5f 2yo Listed); already gelded and visored for this debut; market can guide.
By Mehmas; 15,000euros yearling whose price rose to 45,000gns as a 2yo (breeze-ups); February (sixth) foal; closely related to bumper/2m3f hurdle winner Elogio, half-brother to winners King's Scholar (1m4f; RPR 89), Jellystone (11.4f/1m4f; 87) and Classy Dame (1m2f; 72); dam placed at 1m1f (64); sire will need to have packed a fair punch for him to go in first time, but worth a market check.
By Lope Y Fernandez; eighth foal; half-brother to winners Irreverent (7f/1m; RPR 94), Deb's Delight (6f 2yo August debut; 86) and Original Thinker (7.4f; 70); dam was a three-time 6f 2yo winner (including second start and at Listed level; 100), half-sister to useful 5f 2yo (April debut) winner Cocktail Charlie; first crop sire has already produced winners and this one's bred to make his mark at two; interesting debutant.
April foal by Mohaather; 18-1 and green on debut when sixth of seven, beaten nearly 12l, at Hamilton (6f, good to firm); that was only one week ago and he needs to take a firm leap forward.
£30,000 yearling whose pedigree is a mix of speed and stamina; 11-1 when an encouraging third in a course maiden (5f, good) 23 days ago; draw not helpful and he'll need to do better but that's likely with this extra furlong almost certain to suit.
22,000gns yearling by Saxon Warrior; April (twelfth) foal; closely related to winners Study Of Man (1m-10.5f including 2yo September debut and French Derby; RPR 118) and Tale Of Life (1m 2yo November debut/8.5f; 101); dam maiden half-sister to French classic winners Kingmambo and East Of The Moon from the family of outstanding Miesque; fine pedigree catches the eye ahead of this debut.
Attracted some market support before going close on debut here (5f, good) but then let odds-on backers down when third at Beverley (5f, good to firm) three weeks later; hampered early that day, however, and the winner and second have both run well subsequently; 6f no issue on pedigree and he sets the standard on that initial run.
Late-February (fourth) foal by Ardad; half-sister to winners Mystic Pearl (7f 2yo/1m Listed; RPR 101) and Clear Storm (1m2f; 75); dam 6f 2yo June winner (narrowly beaten on May debut; 96), closely related to 5f May 2yo winner (second start) Kidda, out of 7f 2yo Listed winner (also won on her 6f June debut); drawn widest but bred to make her mark this year and she rates another interesting newcomer; sole filly.
