Bourbon Blues (G)
Useful performer. Showed he's trained on well when 2½ lengths third of 7 to Morshdi in listed race at Newmarket (9f, good) on reappearance 31 days ago but has a more exposed profile that most of these and will need a very smart handicap pe…

[P1]
Useful 2-y-o, winning 1m maiden at Punchestown and third in 9f Leopardstown Group 3. Fitted with first-time cheekpieces now switching to a handicap on reappearance. Needs to find improvement but top Irish stable has had a few run well unde…

Tierra Del Toro (G)
Decisive winner of 7f Kempton novice last August and useful effort when length second (Bourbon Blues third) in 1m course novice the following month. Will stay 1¼m and this handicap newcomer is almost certainly capable of better again in 20…

Sahara King (C)
Too Darn Hot colt who made a winning start in novice at Wolverhampton in November. Better form in defeat this year, finishing 3¾ lengths second of 5 to Evanesco on handicap debut at Newmarket (1¼m, good to firm) 13 days ago. Open to furthe…

Al Azd (G)
[B]
Improved since blinkered, winning 11f maiden at Southwell (all-weather) and 1½m handicap at Doncaster (good to firm; did it easily) this spring. Raised 7 lb but could have even more to offer for last year's winning yard.

Capall Rasa (G)
Won novice and nursery on all-weather at Southwell last autumn. Creditable fourth of 7 in Esher Cup at Sandown (1m, good) on reappearance 22 days ago and he's entitled to come on for the run. Tackles 1¼m for the first time.

Lost Boys (C)
FAV
Night of Thunder colt who showed a good attitude when winning 9-runner maiden at Haydock (1m, good) last autumn. Shaded a close finish in 1¼m Sandown handicap on reappearance (good) 22 days ago and appeals as one who should continue to pro…

Pearl River (C)
Off the mark at the fifth attempt when making a winning nursery debut at Nottingham (1¼m, soft) last October. Flying too high in listed race on reappearance and returns to handicap company in a very hot race.

Sintra (C)
Kingman colt who has improved with each run, making a successful start to his handicap career at Ascot (1¼m, good to firm) last weekend, making all. 4 lb out of the weights here so a good deal more will be needed again if he's to follow up…
