1/3

Daughter of Kodiac who broke her maiden at the first time of asking over 5f at Lingfield (good to soft) last month. Ran green but won well on that occasion and every chance she can follow up if handling the likely quicker ground today.

7/1

Compton Place colt cost €10,000 as yearling and fetched £30,000 as a 2yo. Racecourse bow and merits respect.

7/1

Clodovil colt is a half-brother to three winners, including 2yo 5f winner Rogues' Gallery. Interesting to see how the market judges on debut, given he may be seen to best effect over further in time.

May Girl

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: L Morris| T: R M H Cowell

33/1

Home bred filly by Mayson out of dual winning sprinter Instructress. Worth a market check though this looks a relatively tough starting point.

Onefootinparadise¹⁵

14/1

Cost just £2,000 as a yearling with the yard not known for their juveniles, made a pleasing start at Leicester over 5f (good to soft) last month having gone off 40/1. Needs more to land this prize.

Forecasts

One Minute (1/3), Viscount Loftus (7/1), Sovereign State (7/1), Onefootinparadise (14/1), May Girl (33/1)

ONE MINUTE carries a penalty for last month's winning debut at Leicester, where she made light of some greenness to score in good style. Assuming this likely faster surface doesn't catch her out, she looks to be the most likely winner in this small field. Newcomers Sovereign State and Viscount Loftus are worth noting in the market while Onefootinparadise commands respect after a decent debut performance at Leicester on debut.
