Sea Lantern (G)
Confirmed promise of debut third at Roscommon (1½m, good) when winning a maiden over the same C&D in September, on what was his final run for Jack Davison. Armed with potential starting out for new connections and, though this is tougher, …

Asia Force (C)
Held back by inexperience when failing to land the odds on debut at Newcastle in January. Pulled a mile clear of the other 2 when again finding just one too good at Southwell (11f) the following month and this well-bred colt remains open t…

Infraad (C)
FAV
Closely related to several winners and posted an encouraging second in a Doncaster maiden on sole 2-y-o start. Still looked green when third in a 9-runner Nottingham novice (1¼m, good to soft) 3 weeks ago and likely to take a step forward …

Leighton (C)
Frankel colt and out of connections' 1¼m/1½m Group 1 winner Coronet. Wasn't knocked about when fifth in a 12-runner Kempton maiden (1m) won by a potentially very useful Godolphin colt and improvement should be forthcoming.

Night Wolf (C)
Encouraging fifth of 13 in a strong maiden at York (7f, good to firm) on debut in August but appeared to take a backward step when failing to justify favouritism in a Redcar novice for new yard 2 months later. Looks vulnerable.

Why Not Win (C)
Ghaiyyath colt. Closely related to high-class winner up to 1¼m Akeed Mofeed and very smart 6f-7f winner Jordan Sport. Pitched into a warm race for his debut and the market should point the way.
