Maho Bay
It's hard to knock the form of Endorsement, who'll probably try to draw the sting out of his opposition back over 1¼m, but he may just set things up for MAHO BAY, who looked a fine prospect prior to the Lingfield Derby Trial and can resume winning ways returning to a more suitable track. My Love Is King and Generic are both firmly on the up and command plenty of respect.

Close second to Christmas Day in the Ballysax is the best piece of form on offer, and while he was a cut above his opposition when scoring under a no-nonsense ride from the front in a 1½m listed event at Leopardstown last time, the drop back in trip on firmish ground does raise a slight doubt.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosLeopardstown1m 4fSoftFlat1/4Leopardstown1m 2fGoodFlat3/5Leopardstown1m 2fYieldingFlat2/9Saint-cloud1m 1f 207yVery softFlat8/10Newmarket (rowley)1m 2fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/8- 8(4)MorshdiJ: Tom MarquandE: William Haggas21-15Âge 3+550+550+500

Much-improved effort to make it 2 wins from 3 starts on return in the Gerry Feilden (form has taken a few knocks) at Newmarket and despite only running to a similar level when fifth in the Dante at York last time, it's still early days for one from an excellent yard.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosYork1m 2f 56yGoodFlat5/8Newmarket (rowley)1m 1fGoodFlat1/7York7f 192yGoodFlat1/8Sandown Park7fSoft (Good to Soft in places)Flat2/5- 7(1)Maho BayJ: William BuickE: Charlie Appleby1-14Âge 3+600+600+650

Striking Kempton debut success was backed up by the clock and again proved most impressive when following up at Newmarket on return. The track was surely a factor in his Lingfield Derby Trial fourth and he's well worth another chance over a more suitable C&D, with stable in better form now, too.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosLingfield Park1m 3f 133yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat4/6Newmarket (rowley)1m 2fGoodFlat1/5Kempton Park1m 2f 219yStandard / SlowFlat1/5- 2(2)OxagonJ: Oisin MurphyE: John & Thady Gosden255-160Âge 3+700+700+750

Frankel colt who resumed progress in a race run to suit when successful in the Craven on return. Subsequently below that form when sixth in the 2000 Guineas/well held in the French Derby, though is at least worth another crack at 1¼m with sights lowered.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosChantilly1m 2f 97yGoodFlat12/16Newmarket (rowley)1mGood to FirmFlat6/14Newmarket (rowley)1mGoodFlat1/5Doncaster1mHeavyFlat5/5Newmarket (rowley)7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat5/9- 9(9)Mountain CatJ: Kieran ShoemarkE: Saeed bin Suroor11Âge 3+900+1100+1000

Bred to be useful and is well on his way to that level, following up an impressive debut success at Doncaster in straightforward fashion at Wolverhampton (8.5f). Taking on much stiffer opposition for his hat-trick bid, but there's some merit to his form, and he's still unexposed stepping up in trip.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosWolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat1/6Doncaster1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/6- 4(3)GenericJ: James DoyleE: Andrew Balding212Âge 3+1000+1000+900

Fast-improving son of Kameko who went one better than on debut with a straightforward success at Yarmouth (1m). No match for subsequent French Derby winner Constitution River in the Dee Stakes last time, however, he's entitled to be firmly in the shake-up given the upward trajectory of his form.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosChester1m 2f 70yGoodFlat2/5Yarmouth1m 3yGoodFlat1/11Kempton Park1mStandard / SlowFlat2/11- 6(8)ItalyJ: W.

Attractive Wootton Bassett colt who showed plenty of ability amid flaws in 7f Group races as a juvenile. Fourth behind Endorsement in the Ballysax (1¼m) on return, though a 6-month absence likely contributed to his finishing effort that day, and he could yet have more to offer over this trip.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosLeopardstown1m 2fYieldingFlat4/9Newmarket (rowley)7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat8/9Curragh7fYieldingFlat3/6York7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/7Newmarket (july)7fGood to FirmFlat2/7- 10(6)My Love Is KingJ: Robert HavlinE: John & Thady Gosden1-22Âge 3+1400+1400+1600

Improving Kingman colt (from a family connections know well) who chased home smart Maltese Cross in a Newbury novice before finishing runner-up in a Newmarket listed race last time. Excellent yard now adds first-time cheekpieces and he's likely to be in the mix with further progress anticipated.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosNewmarket (rowley)1m 2fGood to FirmFlat2/5Newbury1m 2fGoodFlat2/10Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat1/5- 5(5)GlaciusJ: Billy LoughnaneE: Hugo Palmer143-Âge 3+2500+2500+2800

Progressive juvenile who made a winning debut at Newmarket prior to finishing a useful third in the Group 3 Autumn Stakes (1m) there last October. That form still leaves him with plenty to find on first start as a 3-y-o, however, he's certainly worth a go over this longer trip.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosNewmarket (rowley)1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat3/7Haydock Park1m 37yGoodFlat4/7Newmarket (july)1mGood to FirmFlat1/5- 1(10)Oceans FourJ: Christophe SoumillonE: Brian Meehan912d1-7Âge 3+6600+6600+8000

Didn't need to improve on his second past the post in the Solario (placed third for interference) when landing a Group 3 at Chantilly (1m) on final 2-y-o start, however, he was beaten before his stamina could be tested (not sure to stay) in the Classic Trail at Sandown (1¼m) on return in late-April.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosSandown Park1m 1f 209yGoodFlat7/7Chantilly7f 210ySoftFlat1/7Sandown Park7fSoftFlatD/6Ffos Las7f 80yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat1/8Newmarket (july)7fGood to FirmFlat9/12
