Almins Vantage/Lallemand Magniva Classic EBF Novice Stakes (GBB/GBBPlus Race)
Sheikh Ahmed Al Maktoum
110,000 gns Wootton Bassett filly from a good family. Continued race-by-race improvement when 3 lengths fourth behind a subsequent winner in valuable maiden on return at Sandown (7f), looking suited by the longer trip. Sets a fair standard and pedigree offers hope she'll stay this extra furlong.

Perfect Power gelding with something of a mixed-bag pedigree. Showed ability when 10 lengths fourth of 12 on debut at Kempton (7f). He'll improve stepping up in trip and merits respect sent North by yard who is 3-3 with maiden/novice runners at this course.

Sheikh Juma Dalmook Al Maktoum
From a Group-winning French family. Bound to improve for his 7 lengths fourth of 9 on racecourse bow at Haydock (1m, good to soft), when not given anything like a hard time. Looks up to winning a maiden/novice, though may need Bassrah to underperform on this occasion.
