Act Of Generosity (C)
875,000 gns yearling, Sea The Stars colt. Dam, 1m/8.4f winner who stayed 10.5f, half-sister to useful 13f winner Bite of The Cherry. Holds an Irish Derby entry and has to be afforded plenty of respect on racecourse bow.

Astracornus (G)
Showed ability amid greenness when down the field in a 1m Chelmsford novice on debut last November. Since gelded and while this is a much stronger race, he's open to improvement over a more suitable trip.

Bred to be useful but couldn't quite live up to market strength on debut, finishing third in a Wolverhampton novice that has worked out well. Sure to improve for that experience, and with high hopes this longer trip will suit, he's probabl…

King Of Thebes (G)
[P]
1,500,000 gns Dubawi gelding. Hardly a positive that cheekpieces were fitted on for his debut, finishing third of 7 at Southwell (1½m), though he's in excellent hands and is entitled to progress given his pedigree.

Superior Choice (C)
1,100,000 gns Dubawi colt. Dam won the Ribblesdale Stakes and Prix de Royallieu for John Gosden. Showed distinct promise amid greenness when fourth in a 1m Newmarket novice on debut last October and with improvement expected, he merits ser…

Yafreh (C)
Frankel colt. Brother to smart winner up to 1¼m Al Mubhir and half-brother to 3 winners, including useful winner up to 1½m Yabher and 1m winner Dubawi Warrior. Makes appeal on paper ahead of this racecourse debut and warrants a market chec…
