|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3rd | 1 | 2 |
Alpine Culture (G)
10/1, fourth of 8 in maiden at Southwell (7f) on debut in December. That form is little better than modest but he's in the right hands to progress.

Cieren Fallon | James Owen | 3 | 58.1 kg |

| 8th | 2 | 1 |
Big Snoopy (C)
300,000 gns Siyouni colt. Dam won the French 1000 Guineas. A likely type on breeding and would enter calculations if the betting speaks in his favour.

K Shoemark | E Walker | 3 | 58.1 kg |

Cerro Blanco (C)
FAV
Wootton Bassett colt. Half-brother to 11f winner Secret Force. Dam smart winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner). Makes plenty of appeal on paper for a top stable which won this last year.

W Buick | C Appleby | 3 | 58.1 kg |

| 7th | 4 | 8 |
Galba (C)
11/4, promise when third of 7 in maiden at Newbury (6.5f, heavy) on debut last October. Looks a sure-fire improver.

S M Levey | R Hannon | 3 | 58.1 kg |

14/1
|
| 4th | 5 | 6 |
Kimbara (C)
13/2, green when fourth of 5 in novice at Newcastle (6f) on debut 39 days ago. Open to improvement now stepping up to 7f.

George Wood | R Spencer | 3 | 58.1 kg |

| 6th | 6 | 4 |
Makerstoun (C)
€500,000 Night of Thunder colt. Dam useful French 2-y-o 1m winner who stayed 10.5f from a very good French family. Another newcomer in this line-up who is bred to be useful.

Rossa Ryan | Jane Chapple-Hyam | 3 | 58.1 kg |

17/2
|
| 5th | 7 | 3 |
Powder Monkey (G)
Fair form when 6 lengths second on 7f Wolverhampton debut. Faded when a well-held third over 1m at Southwell 17 days and connections are quick to drop him back in trip now switching to the grass.
|
Jack Callan | G Boughey | 3 | 58.1 kg |

|
| 2nd | 8 | 7 |
Wield (C)
Well-related sort who stepped up on his turf debut last summer when third of 4 in a 7f Chelmsford novice 38 days ago. Will almost certainly need to improve again to go close here, though.

Oisin Murphy | A M Balding | 3 | 58.1 kg |
