1400m – Turf

1

Angelo Buonarroti

A 1,000,000 euros purchase, who was in the deep end for his only start, finishing ninth of 22 in a 1200m G2 at Royal Ascot. Has a better chance to prove himself now.

2

Arabian Angel

Made a promising start to his career when – though no threat to the winner – finished second and clear of the rest in a novices’ event at Redcar in July.

3

Bambalam

A 600,000 gns 2yo purchase, this newcomer is bred to thrive at this sort of trip.

4

Bowen Island

Up to 1400m – which is a positive move according to pedigree – after two encouraging runs over 1200m latterly when fourth in a maiden at Haydock.

5

Draupnir

Out of a mare who has produced plenty of winners. But, unless strong in the betting, is probably best just watched on this debut.

6

Fajhan

A 90,000 gns yearling purchase, he is the first foal of a mare who won over 1600m.

7

Frostmagic

A first-time starter, his dam has already produced some smart winners.

8

Goal Line

A cheap purchase who showed ability when third in a 1200m maiden at Ayr this month. Will probably struggle against so many well-regarded types in this.

9

High Season

He made a promising start when second to a more experienced rival in a maiden at Beverley this month.

10

Hurricane Bea

Missed the break on his only start and could never get involved. A very unlikely winner of this.

11

Lever Up

Already a gelding, he is the first foal of a mare who didn’t race.

12

Realign

Made an encouraging career debut when second to a potentially very smart colt – who had already won a race – in a 1200m novices’ event at Newmarket this month.

13

Red Admiral

A 100,000 euros yearling purchase, this newcomer is bred for staying trips though 1400m looks an appropriate start.

14

Shah

Had his first start in a novices’ event over this trip at Leicester this month, showing inexperience but still running a decent second.

15

Sherlock

A 125,000 euros purchase who looked very inexperienced on his first start when fifth of six over similar trip at Haydock last month.

16

Spirit Of Summer

Shaped well despite showing inexperience on his debut when second of 12 in a 1400m maiden for newcomers at Newmarket this month.

17

Ultrasoul

A 200,000 euros purchase who finished strongly into second in a Yarmouth maiden in July. The winner of that has enhanced the form by landing a subsequent victory.

18

White Chapel Road

Has twice shown promise in maidens latterly when fourth at Goodwood, giving the impression then that the move up to 1400m would be helpful.

19

Thanks Angel

Related to some decent sorts but probably best just watched on this career debut.

20

Whirl

Beautifully bred and striking to look at, she made an encouraging start when fourth in a 1400m maiden at the Curragh last month. Of interest here.
