Form & Verdict

7-1, travelled well when 2l third on debut at Newmarket (1m, good) a fortnight ago; this half-brother to Group 1 Commonwealth Cup winner Inisherin is open to considerable improvement and the drop back in trip may be the right move for the time being; very interesting contender.

Dubawi half-brother to 6f Group 1 winner Inisherin (dam stayed well) who holds Group 1 and Group 2 entries in the autumn; stable form might be better and their strike-rate with 2yos is down this season; the market will guide.

Beaten about 6l when fourth of six on debut at Leicester (7f, good to firm) this month but he ran well for a long way and is likely to improve for the run; stable does well here and this 160,000gns 2yo is not ruled out.

7-2, kept on well to make winning debut at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) this month; this half-brother to multiple Group/Grade 1 winner Romantic Warrior could have lots more to offer, especially now up in trip, and he may well maintain his unbeaten record.

Fifth foal; half-brother to winners Romantic Warrior (6f-1m2f including multiple Group/Grade 1s), Melodic Charm (6f AW including 2yo; 93) and Pennywhistle (7f 2yo; 93); this Showcasing gelding is with a top trainer (also runs Hamilton third Our Mighty Mo) and could play a leading role on debut.

Form & Verdict

Recovered from slow start to finish third on debut at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June and built on that promise to win Haydock maiden (6f, good) four weeks ago; there's plenty of substance to that latest form and his powerful finish provides optimism today's trip will be fine; leading claims.
