Alfaraz

Age: 3
Weight: 9st 4lbs
Or: -

Has shown plenty of ability, again doing a bit much in front when a close sixth at Newbury (1¼m) in April. That form has worked out well, but more conservative tactics/fitting of a hood seemed to backfire when fifth at Chepstow 3 weeks ago. May be best allowed to stride on returned to 1m. Player.

Cockade

Age: 3
Weight: 9st 11lbs
Or: -

Pinatubo colt whose debut fourth at Kempton in December proved extremely strong form and he looked potentially useful when making a successful return at Windsor (1m) 12 days ago, going clear final 1f. Looks a live player under a penalty with prospect of more to come.

Date	Course	Distance	Going	Pos	Type
08/06/26	Windsor	1m 31y	Gd/Sft	1/11	Flat
01/12/25	Kempton Park	1m	Std	4/10	Flat

Moreedd

Age: 3
Weight: 9st 11lbs
Or: -

Night Of Thunder colt who was far more clued up with his debut behind him when successful in an 11-runner Nottingham novice (1m) 32 days ago. Fortunate on the day (runner up sure to have collected granted a bit of luck) but he's in good hands and remains one to be positive about.

Date	Course	Distance	Going	Pos	Type
19/05/26	Nottingham	1m 75y	Gd/Sft	1/11	Flat
24/04/26	Doncaster	7f 6y	Gd/Frm	4/5	Flat

Zynak (Fr)

Age: 3
Weight: 9st 4lbs
Or: -

€100,000 Zarak gelding who went backwards from his low-key Newbury debut effort when ninth of 14 in a Windsor novice (1¼m, good to soft) 12 days ago. Another likely type for handicaps moving forward.

Date	Course	Distance	Going	Pos	Type
08/06/26	Windsor	1m 2f	Gd/Sft	9/14	Flat
15/05/26	Newbury	1m 2f	Good	9/9	Flat

Littleferry

Age: 3
Weight: 8st 13lbs
Or: -

Study of Man filly. Dam 1¼m-1¾m winner. Yard wouldn't be a source of winning newcomers and this looks a hot enough introduction.

Timeform Verdict

ALFARAZ failed to confirm previous form when fifth over 1¼m at Chepstow 3 weeks ago, yet a return to more positive tactics ought to see Andrew Balding's charge in a better light returned to this shorter trip, and he can make full use of the 7 lb he receives from penalised-pair Cockade and Moreedd, who rate next best in that order.
