1 5 3YO plus 16:32 Nottingham 20 May 2025 Family Fun Raceday Sunday 1st June Novice Stakes £3,780 1m 2f 50y Good to firm-good in places null Even DESERT SHADOW took a big step forward when finishing a creditable second at Chelmsford. That was his first start over 1m2f and the son of Siyouni should have more to offer over middle-distances. The latter comment also applies to Serenity Blue, who was doing his best work at the finish when fifth at Leicester, while the 200,000gns newcomer Native Spirit should be noted with Charlie Appleby's yard in such fine form. Tenability appeals on paper, although Tom Marquand opts for the one with experience, Golden Handshake. The other newcomer, Native Spirit, is very interesting runner for a top yard, and must be taken seriously on debut. Serenity Blue was getting the hang of things late on when making his debut in April. He can come on plenty for that and is on the list. Only One Blue deserves a mention as another with potential. It is DESERT SHADOW, though, who can come out on top here. He has been progressive so far and can come on again.
