1st	1	3	Extremely Zain (C) €75,000 yearling, €185,000 2-y-o. Half-brother to 3 winners, including French 1m-9.7f winner Uragano. Lots to like on paper and confidence behind him in the betting on debut would look significant.	1-11	Cieren Fallon W J Haggas	2	60.3kg	3.50 5/2
4th	2	11	Kameko Fever (G) Once-raced maiden. Last of 10 in novice at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 28/1) on debut 16 days ago. Yard also saddles What A Tahoo.	424407	Ethan Tindall R A Fahey	2	60.3kg	41 40/1

2nd	4	4	Starryfield (G) FAV Promising type. 15/2, second of 13 in maiden at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) on debut in July. That form is nothing to get excited about, but it was a promising start to his career and he should buil…	22-373	P Cosgrave James Owen	2	60.3kg	1.91 10/11
5th	5	1	Viking Glory (G) Promising individual. 4/5, second of 9 in novice at this course (7.1f) 27 days ago. This drop back to 6f looks a good move and he remains open to improvement.	307031	Barry McHugh A Keatley	2	60.3kg	4 3/1
6th	6	9	Battenburg Belle (F) Once-raced maiden. 66/1, tenth of 13 in maiden at this C&D on debut 10 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals.	222153	A Mullen R Menzies	2	58.1kg	126 125/1
10th	7	10	Freezing Havana (F) Foaled February 20. 36,000 gns foal, 10,000 gns yearling, Havana Grey filly. Dam unraced from family of Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner Dalakhani. Yard's newcomers typically come on for a run.	0-58	Rowan Scott Adrian Nicholls	2	58.1kg	19 18/1
8th	8	7	Havin A Flyer (F) Modest filly. 33/1, good fourth of 10 in novice at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 3 days ago. Should run her race, but she's starting to look a shade exposed.	433213	Laura Coughlan R Menzies	2	58.1kg	29 28/1
9th	9	5	Quiet Serenade (F) Twice-raced maiden. 33/1, eighth of 13 in maiden at this C&D 10 days ago, not knocked about. Will likely be better off in handicaps later on.	489-5	T Eaves I Furtado	2	58.1kg	51 50/1
3rd	10	6	Space Moon (F) Foaled March 26. €5,000 yearling, Space Blues filly. Half-sister to 1¼m winner Dolce Far Niente. Another who will probably come on for the run.	065673	Cam Hardie B Ellison	2	58.1kg	67 66/1
7th	11	2	What A Tahoo (F) Eighth of 9 starting out in a maiden at Southwell (6.1f, 16/1) 169 days ago, missing break. Like stable companion Kameko Fever, she will need to leave her debut form well behind if she's to play a pa…	331514	Warren Fentiman R A Fahey	2	58.1kg	51 50/1
