MEDIUM RISK

CAREER0:0-0

Jockey:Kerrin Mcevoy

Trainer:Chris Waller

A first-starter from the formidable Chris Waller yard, Negate carries the weight of expectation. While unproven, the stable's record with debutants and the booking of Kerrin McEvoy are strong indicators. The inside draw is ideal for a debutant, and any market support would be significant.

MEDIUM RISK

CAREER3:0-0

Jockey:Jason Collett

Trainer:Joseph Pride

Obsidian Dream showed improvement in its last start and comes from the Joseph Pride stable, which often gets its maidens to peak at the right time. The good barrier and Jason Collett in the saddle are positives. This horse could be ready to put it all together and offers good each-way value.

Apiarist

Barrier 6 · 122kg · Form: —

MEDIUM RISK

CAREER1:0-0

Jockey:Adam Farragher

Trainer:Ciaron Maher

Apiarist is another runner from a top stable (Ciaron Maher) with limited exposure. His debut run was fair, and with natural improvement and Adam Farragher's claim, he could be a factor. The wider draw is a slight concern but not insurmountable.

Satono Jasmine

Barrier 5 · 123kg · Form: —

MEDIUM RISK

CAREER1:0-0

Jockey:Chad Schofield

Trainer:Brad Widdup

Satono Jasmine had a moderate debut but hails from the Brad Widdup stable, which can often improve horses significantly second-up. With Chad Schofield taking the ride, there's a professional touch, and a better run is expected. Keep an eye on market moves.

HIGH RISK

CAREER3:0-0

Jockey:Rory Hutchings

Trainer:Joseph Pride

Nonno's Power is from a good stable but has shown little in three starts so far. While improvement is always possible, he needs to lift significantly to be competitive here. The wider barrier doesn't help his chances.

HIGH RISK

CAREER3:0-0

Jockey:Mollie Fitzgerald

Trainer:Mark Minervini

Gemtiki has been unplaced in all three starts and hasn't shown enough to suggest a breakthrough win here. While the barrier is reasonable, the overall form is a concern against some promising types. Would need significant improvement to feature.

Jockey:Jay Ford

Trainer:Edward Cummings

Fit For A Prince has had four starts without placing and his form figures are not inspiring. The wide barrier makes his task even tougher in a race with several more fancied runners. Hard to recommend on current form.

Gong Girl has failed to make an impact in four career starts and is drawn poorly in barrier 8. She would need a dramatic turnaround in form to be a contender here, making her a long shot. Others have much stronger claims.
