Betway Craven Stakes (Group 3) (Colts & Geldings)

Two from two last year, both starts over 7f at Doncaster, latest in Listed grade (on good ground) when collaring Hankelow on the line despite still seeming green; may have plenty of further progress in him, especially over this extra furlong; one of the main players.

Record of 2-7 and broadly consistent last term; creditable second in last three starts, including in 7f Group 3 at Newmarket; however, his ceiling is seemingly already known and, unlike all of today's rivals, he doesn't have a 2,000 Guineas entry.

Night Of Thunder colt who nearly went 3-3 last season, the sole defeat when nabbed by Avicenna on the line at Doncaster; justified favouritism in the Autumn Stakes over C&D (good to firm; Group 3) next time, making all; progressive and holds solid claims.

Made all and did enough to beat two stablemates in the Futurity at Doncaster (heavy; Group 1) to complete a 1m hat-trick and take record to 3-4; may ideally need further this year, especially when the ground isn't testing; otherwise the form pick and an improving Ballydoyle colt to boot.

Frankel colt who is two from two, namely AW wins at Kempton, last time comfortably beating Venetian Prince in 1m conditions race that his yard landed in 2024 and 2025 with subsequent Group 1 scorers (including 2,000 Guineas); the signs look very good for this highly promising sort.
