| 2nd | 1 | 7 |
Action (C)
Progressed into a smart performer at 2 yrs, beaten only ½ length in the Futurity Trophy at Doncaster on final start. However, produced a disconcerting effort in first-time tongue strap in Classic Trial at Sandown on return, looking less th…

Al Zanati (C)
Winner of 2 of his 3 starts at 2 yrs, notably Group 3 at Chantilly final start. Returned with a good second in Sandown Classic Trial and should build on that again, but Buick prefers King's Trail.

Christmas Day (C)
FAV
Improving colt who took his form to another level when completing hat-trick in Ballysax at Leopardstown on return, relishing the extra 1f. Likely to make another bold bid and any rain should increase his chance even more.

Guildmaster (C)
Looked a good prospect when overcoming inexperience to make a winning start in a decent Lingfield novice in December and stepped up on that bare form despite being unsuited by the track when third in a useful class 2 at Newmarket 4 weeks a…

Item (C)
Frankel colt who is clearly held in high regard and showed why when winning Kempton maiden and Bath novice in the autumn with plenty in hand. This is a big step up but he's potentially smart and yard won this with the returning Bonfire in …

King's Trail (C)
Had looked an exciting prospect when winning first 2 starts at Kempton but failed to make an impact when fast-tracked to the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket 12 days ago. Worth another chance with this scenario likely to prove more suitable.

Morshdi (C)
Confirmed debut promise when winning maiden here (1m) in October and created a favourable impression when picking up where he left off in the Feilden Stakes at Newmarket (9f) on return. That form has taken a couple of knocks but he remains…

Wise Prince (C)
Made a successful debut in taking fashion in novice at Nottingham sole 2-y-o start and produced a smart performance despite still showing signs of immaturity when third (1¼ behind Al Zanati) in Classic Trial at Sandown on return. Looks the…
