A cracking renewal of the Cocked Hat and AMILOC is fancied to take this step up in class in his stride and go 4-4 now his stamina is drawn out more. Both Opportunity (second choice) and Tycoon are in excellent hands and rate exciting prospects too though so should ensure Ralph Beckett's unbeaten son of Postponed doesn't have things all his own way. Seaplane completes the shortlist.

    Verdict
    Son of Postponed has improved a chunk with each of his three runs, easily bagging 6-runner conditions stakes here (8f, good) on his return 22 days ago, storming clear last 1f. Big shout with more to come over this longer distance.

    Verdict
    Son of Pinatubo progressed well at 2yrs, landing 1m Newcastle novice and signing off with a very good third of 5 in listed race at Pontefract (8f, heavy) in October. Capable of better but this demands plenty more.

    Verdict
    Well-related Frankel colt built on his debut promise six months earlier when readily landing 7-runner novice at Haydock (11.6f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Appeals as the sort to do a fair bit better so must enter calculations.

    Improving son of Saxon Warrior who resumed winning ways in 11-runner novice at Southwell (1m4f) 24 days ago. Open to further progess but this is no easy ask.

    Verdict
    Impressive winner of 7f Newmarket maiden in Septmber and not disgraced (tongue tied) when 5¾ lengths fourth of 8 in Futurity Trophy at Doncaster (8f, heavy) following month. Resumes with more to offer after a wind op so this son of Golden Horn shouldn't be underestimated up in trip.

    Ended 2024 with all-the-way win in 1m2f Pontefract novice and took his form up a notch when 3½ lengths fourth of 5 to Swagman in Classic Trial at Sandown (10f, good to soft) on his reappearance. Yard has Amiloc in here but possibilities.

    Verdict
    Son of Too Darn Hot progressed at 2yrs, landing 8,5f conditions event at Epsom before ending campaign with a solid fourth of 7 in Zetland Stakes at Newmarket (1m2f) in October. No forlorn hope with this longer trip a likely plus.

    Verdict
    Kingman colt built on a highly promising debut third when comfortably landing the odds in 1m2f maiden at Windsor 26 days ago. This demands considerably more but he's open to significant progress. Interesting prospect.
