Andrew Balding really has hit the ground running this spring and Beresford third WINDLORD might be able to provide the stable with a fourth win in this since 2015. I Am I Said could hardly have been more impressive on his Newmarket debut last autumn and could be the one to give the selection most to do.

    Verdict
    Dubawi colt who progressed well at 2, winning a 1m York novice before third in Group 2 Beresford at the Curragh (1m, good) final start. The step to 1¼m should suit and leading claims for an in-form yard no stranger to success in this race.

    This Almanzor colt looked a smart prospect when impressive winner of 1m Newmarket novice (soft) last autumn. Has the potential for significant improvement for a yard which took this with Irish Derby winner Westover in 2022.

    Verdict
    Sent off at 8/11 and readily made a winning start to his career in 7f Southwell novice in December. That form is some way off the required standard here but he rates a sure-fire improver for leading connections.

    Won a 7f Naas maiden on second start and useful effort when second in 7f Leopardstown Group 3 last July. Not seen since but with a top yard and bred to come into his own over this sort of trip.

    Made all in 1¼m Pontefract novice (heavy) last autumn. Open to further progress but I Am I Said probably the Ralph Beckett first string unless the betting suggests otherwise.
