RAGGAAS is well bred and has shown a level of form which might prove good enough here if able to cope with the drop back in trip. Yimmna, an expensive purchase, looks much more interesting than the rest given her connections.

A €650,000 yearling purchase who was seventh of 11 on debut at Yarmouth in June and then second of 3 to subsequent winner at Newmarket later that month. Won't need much more in this company.

Verdict
Similar form all 3 starts, finishing second of 4 over 1m at Salisbury 14 days ago. Lacked change of gear in a tactical race there so this drop back to 7f may not prove ideal, but he's bred to be better than most of these and may prove good enough.

Verdict
Second at 7f on debut at Chepstow but went backwards when upped to 1m, finishing well-beaten third of 6 in a novice at Newmarket 22 days ago. Form lacks solidity so may find a couple too good.

Verdict
Fourth of 8 in a handicap at Doncaster 21 days ago, running well at 7f for the first time, but failed to build on that when fourth of 9 in first-time cheekpieces at Newcastle 8 days ago and may prove vulnerable to less-exposed sorts back in maiden company.
