Looked in need of stiffer test at Southwell two runs ago (1m); heavy didn't suit latest.
4 (3)	Capricorn King Bay J:Jason Hart T:John & Sean Quinn	J:Jason Hart T:John & Sean Quinn	124	b	760452	48	67	26	23d	—	—	-10	11.2	0.75/1	3/1 25%
Beat two of these at Leicester; son of a middle-distance winner oughtn't fail for stamina.
1 (7)	Pine Cliffs Bay J:Hector Crouch T:Jonathan Portman	J:Hector Crouch T:Jonathan Portman	135	p	03664	59	64	55	17d	—	—	-11	8.9	0.88/1	7/2 22%
No better in nurseries yet, but new trip could rectify that; cheekpieces are added.
7 (6)	Spaceage Love Song Bay J:Luke Morris T:Michael Bell	J:Luke Morris T:Michael Bell	121	v	0056	45	57	42	39d	—	—	-12	5	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Finally beat rivals but couldn't vindicate the strong support on nursery debut (1m).
6 (8)	Good Call Chestnut J:Kieran O'Neill T:J S Moore	J:Kieran O'Neill T:J S Moore	121	—	473433	45	63	52	22d	—	—	+1	7.9	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Beat two of these at Kempton latest; consistent if exposed, but might see out 1m2f.
2 (1)	No Release Bay J:Robert Havlin T:Ed Dunlop	J:Robert Havlin T:Ed Dunlop	128	b	89896	52	66	48	22d	—	—	-5	2.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Yet to improve for nurseries, albeit refusing to settle in blinkers last time (retained).
3 (5)	Downcliffe Flyer Chestnut J:Trevor Whelan T:Ollie Sangster	J:Trevor Whelan T:Ollie Sangster	127	—	607	51	55	-	47d	—	—	-2	1.1	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Shown little on fast and slow turf up to 7.5f, but still some grounds for hope.
8 (2)	Astroqualis Brown J:Connor Planas(3) T:Matt Crawley	J:Connor Planas(3) T:Matt Crawley	121	p	00065	45	56	45	22d	—	—	-1	0.3	25.00/1	100/1 1%
Ahead of No Release on both nursery starts without threatening in either; more needed.
