475,000gns yearling; didn't live up to market expectations on Kempton debut (1m, AW) in April and was well held again at Newbury (1m2f, good) last month; still early days but this looks a tough assignment and handicaps will be more suitable.

Half-sister to five winners including Kalpana (8.6f-1m4f including Group 1; RPR 123); shaped with promise on Newbury debut (7f, good) in April and she found plenty of progress when scoring in good style on the step up to 8.6f at Wolverhampton (100-30) last month; has a penalty back on turf but she looks a smart prospect and is strongly respected.

80-1 and he finished a remote fifth of six on Nottingham debut (8.3f, good) last month; opposable.

Closely related to 1m-1m4f winner Mashhoor (including Group 3; RPR 115) and he's a half-brother to seven winners; beaten 8l when third in the Wood Ditton at Newmarket (1m, good) in April but he looked inexperienced and that was a promising effort behind an impressive winner; should know more this time and he's a likely improver on his second start.

$100,000 yearling, 150,000euros breeze-up 2yo; seventh foal; gelded half-brother to winners Desert Peace (7f-1m2f AW/dirt including 2yo; RPR 98), Cantata (6.5f 2yo/8.5f dirt) and Mission Beach (5f-6.5f turf/dirt including 2yo); dam US 4.5f dirt 2yo winner (including stakes); this looks a tough starting point but interesting to see how he figures in market.
