1/10

Comment: Showed winning potential in his first four runs but he took a major step forward when second of 21 in a valuable sales race at York 13 days ago (6f, good to firm), throwing down a big challenge to the winner in the final furlong; back in trip on slower ground (handles good to soft) but obvious claims if he can repeat the latest run.

Top Lad

Jockey: Billy Garritty Trainer: Michael & David Easterby Age/Wt: 2/9-7

12/1

Comment: 7,000gns foal; Starman half-brother to winners Dagian (1m2f Flat, RPR 83; AW bumper), Luminent (1m; 71) and Mister Gaetano (Italian 7f/7.5f including 2yo); dam 7f/1m winner (including 2yo/AW/Listed; 107); bred to have a future but he has a useful standard to aim at.

Comment: 11,000euros yearling; second foal of a 1m/8.6f AW winner from the family of Group 1 winner Linngari; stable wouldn't be renowned for winning 2yo newcomers and she has a useful standard to aim at.

Comment: Won twice on turf last year and the last of those wins was off this mark (7f, good to soft); steadily running into form this campaign and dropping back to 6f (all 16 runs at 7f/1m) might not be too damaging on this track.

Comment: This is his time of year and, after a close second over C&D (good) last month, he went one better at Musselburgh (1m, good) last Tuesday; fully at home on slow ground and firmly in calculations under a 4lb penalty.

Comment: Below par at Pontefract last time and losing sequence is up to 13; however, he's now 7lb lower than when completing the second leg of a C&D double last May (good to soft/soft) and ten visits here have yielded five wins.

Comment: Inconsistent 3yo who is back in a handicap having won a classified at Ayr (1m, good) last month in first-time cheekpieces; however, he's unexposed in the headgear and could give another good account.
