Went close on stable debut at Kempton (1m, AW) in February and again ran well when third of six at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) latest; however, it's possible he's better at a shorter trip and best form thus far has come on AW.
Soundly beaten when back on turf at Musselburgh (1m, good) this month but may have been unsuited by first-time cheekpieces (which are now left off); running well over 1m on AW previously, when shaping as though this longer trip may suit, and he's not ruled out.
Camelot colt who improved upon his 7f/1m maiden form when short-headed on recent handicap debut at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm), where he was nicely clear of the third; returns to action before a rise in the weights kicks in and he's a very strong candidate.
Soundly beaten sixth of eight on nursery debut at Newcastle (1m, AW) last October but that doesn't tell the full story as he came home first of the three that raced on the near side; reappears with trainer in fine form and it will be no surprise to see him give a good account.
She's raced three times (7f-8.4f) and her most promising effort came when keeping on for third of five over 7f here last October on debut; this Ulysses filly could improve for the step up in trip on handicap debut and is one to watch in the betting.
Finished held in fifth last September in her two nurseries (8.4f/1m); however, she showed signs of promise previously and, being by Waldgeist, the step up in trip may well prove to be a positive move on her reappearance, for which she wears first-time cheekpieces.
Slims Pickins is most useful when you can move from this single-race view back to the wider board, compare races quickly, and decide where the edge is strongest.
