William Hill Best Odds Guaranteed EBF Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

28,000euros yearling; fourth foal; Zoustar half-brother to winners Our Havana (7f; RPR 102) and Bishop's Crown (6f; 91); dam 7f/1m winner (93); one of two newcomers for connections; market check advised but he will need to be useful to make a winning start.

Hasn't shown enough on his first two starts (7f, good to firm/AW) to suggest he'll be making an impact this afternoon.

Third foal; Starman half-brother to 5f winner Mutamanni (RPR 91); dam Listed-placed 7f winner (97) from smart family; trainer has unearthed some talented 2yos this season and he could have a part to play.

34,000euros foal, £48,000 yearling; by Invincible Army; second foal; dam Listed-placed 5f/6f winner (including 2yo; RPR 95) from useful family; one of two debutants for connections and the betting could be informative.

12-1 when keeping on for third of four, beaten just over 5l, on last month's debut at Hamilton (5f, good to soft); shaped as though he would improve for the run and the 5l runner-up (also a newcomer) has since run well in a Listed race, but there's still a suspicion he's one for further down the line.
