| 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 than straightforward when pressure was applied in the straight. | ||||||||

| 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. | ||||||||

| 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 ago. Remains with potential. | ||||||||

| 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 2012. | ||||||||

| 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. | ||||||||

| 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 a smart prospect. | ||||||||

| 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 part and yard often run their best 3-y-o in this. | ||||||||

CHRISTMAS DAY beat the subsequent Leopardstown Derby Trial 1-2-3 when completing the hat-trick in the Ballysax there on return last month and the son of Camelot can cement himself as a live Derby contender. Morshdi impressed when winning the Fielden at Newmarket and hails from a yard that won the Lingfield Derby Trial on Saturday, while King's Trail is worth another chance having failed to do himself justice in the 2000 Guineas. |
