Brooklyn
175,000euros yearling; by Night Of Thunder; closely related to 1m3f winner Rubydooby (RPR 84); dam 1m2f winner (95), half-sister to three Group 1 winners; interesting newcomer.

Criminal Shore
Kodiac colt who belied his 40-1 odds with fourth-place finish in 7f contest at Southwell, having raced prominently; possibilities, provided he builds on that effort.

Dutch Duke
21,000 yearling; brother to 6f winner Granny Budgie (including 2yo/US turf; RPR 87), out of 9.4f AW winner (82); stable is 0-33 with 2yos this year; best watched.

Happy Banner
Modest seventh in 7f contest on soft ground at Newmarket, having been outpaced and briefly unbalanced in the latter stages; may do better in this different scenario.

Jamaican Storm
Promising third in similar event over C&D one month ago, keeping on; this Havana Grey gelding is the form pick, even before factoring in possible progress.

Joseph
60,000gns foal, 70,000gns yearling; by Earthlight out of a Group-placed 6f 2yo winner (RPR 102); yard is only 1-34 with 2yos this term; others have better credentials.

9/2 |
Lemurian
Brother to three winners, notably Journey (1m2f-1m4f including Group 1; RPR 120), half-brother to four useful winners; dam won French St Leger; a family that his notable connections know well; likely to need further in time but still respected at this level on debut.

25/1 |
Optimatum
AW debutant who needs significant improvement on his Redcar efforts; should be more interesting in handicaps shortly, unless the change of surface has major effect.

Beaten long way in 1m maiden at Nottingham, having been totally friendless in the betting; readily opposed.

Transfuse
Down the field in 1m maiden at Dundalk on sole start for Joseph O'Brien; sold for 1,000gns a few days later; the betting may help to gauge expectations for new yard.

44,000euros foal, 85,000 yearling; by Earthlight out of unraced half-sister to four winners, notably Gifts Of Gold (smart 1m2f-1m7f); stable has good record with 2yos; possibilities.
