HIGH THRESHOLD (5) Archie Watson & England Watson trained 2yo by Mehmas having first race appearance. Daniel Tudhope is a strong choice aboard. Watch early betting. ASHEYRA (11) Put in a competitive run when placing 2nd beaten by 1 3/4L last start at Ascot. Has plenty of early speed. Can go on with it. MOLLISHA (13) Kept chasing when 4th last time at Chester on a heavy track. Finishes off strongly. Up to these. BIG TRIBE (2) First start at the races 2yo by Sioux Nation for Michael Appleby. Follow the money.

Started at $51.00 and tailed off to finish 13th last start at Beverley but has drawn to do little work. Would be more keen on the chance of others.

Odds of $29.00 and came in 7th last run at Beverley but was a debutant last start. Likely to settle back in the field. Will struggle to compete in this race.

Started $81.00 and looked outclassed when 8th last time at Southwell. Might be ridden for luck. Very unlikely to shake these.

2yo by Mehmas having initial appearance for trainer Archie Watson & England Watson. Jockey Daniel Tudhope is a strong choice aboard. Betting is the best guide.

Backing up quickly. Jumped at $5.00 and just average when 9th last start at Southwell but was on debut last time. Pass.

Started $13.00 and chased well when 4th last run at Thirsk and fitter for debut run. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Was $5.00 and not in contention when 4th last start at Pontefract but having second race start. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide draw. Rough chance.

First run back from a break. Was $26.00 and fairly underwhelming when 6th last start at Salisbury but was a debutant last start. Racing for a new trainer. Rough hope.

Managed to run into 2nd last start at Ascot. Likely to be well placed early. Placed at every start this preparation. Solid claims.

Started at $4.00 and moved ahead of some to finish 4th last time at Chester on a heavy rated track. Expected to be flashing home. Strong prospects.
