Selected odds by:
Successful on her final start of 2016 on good-to-soft ground over 7f at Chester in September and narrowly beaten upped to 1m2f at Pontefract (good-to-firm) on seasonal debut. Disappointed a week later and races off a 3lb higher mark here.
Wore a hood (retained) when winning on debut over 1m on good-to-soft ground last October. Form of that could be working out better though looks likely to appreciate this step up in trip and interesting in this.
Beaten 2L on debut at Haydock in September and ran creditably in two subsequent starts in France. Beaten 5L on soft ground on the most recent of those he makes his handicap debut here.
Maiden after 5 starts, the best of which came when beaten ½L over 1m at Ascot (good) in September. Beaten 3½L over C&D on her handicap and seasonal debut off this mark earlier this month and is an interesting runner here.
Successful over 7f at Yarmouth (good-to-firm) on her second and final outing of 2016 in July she finished well beaten on handicap debut over 1m at Newmarket (good-to-firm) a month ago. Worth a check in the market here.
Ran well to finish fourth on her first two starts including at Doncaster last October when making her debut. Well beaten over this trip at Newmarket (good-to-firm) on her seasonal reappearance last month she makes her handicap debut today.
Winner of a maiden on the AW at Newcastle over 1m last October. Well beaten at Wolverhampton over an extended 1m on her seasonal debut earlier this month and steps up in trip for a yard in form recently (5/21).
Had just one start so far this year that coming when finishing fourth at Lingfield over 1m on the AW in February. Well held on sole turf start last October and makes her handicap debut in this.
Forecasts
Marilyn (3/1), Celestation (4/1), Carol (5/1), Di Alta (5/1), Harebell (7/1), Prize Diva (8/1), Three Duchesses (12/1), Canterbury Quad (20/1)
CAROL ran well to finish fourth over C&D when racing from off the pace for the first time last time out. The selection appeared looks likely to appreciate the stiffer test of stamina that the forecast soft ground will provide here and she can get the better of Di Alta who was successful on her only start at two and her breeding suggests that this step up in trip should suit. Of the remainder Celestation disappointed last time out having finished runner-up at Pontefract on her first start of the season and she looks likely to attempt to make all.
- Carol
- Di Alta
