Tulip Fever¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: Harry Bentley| T: W J Haggas

1/1

Backed up her sound debut effort to win a valuable Novice Stakes at York 12 days ago; has a stiffer test under her 6lb penalty but has achieved the most at this stage and likely to be hard to deal with once more here.

Form: 31

(8)

Kodiac Express¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: A Fresu| T: M Murphy| OR: 70

7/1

Four previous attempts in races of this type have yielded just one placed effort so far. But she has at least run with consistency and can be expected to make this a good test and is entitle to be on the premises. Quite whether she is good enough to win is debatable though.

Ladycammyofclare

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: A Kirby| T: C & M Johnston

5/1

Yard has a good record with it's raids on Bath prize-money and while she is well down the pecking order in terms of purchase price, the Camacho filly is one to bear in mind if the market indicates she has impressed in the preliminaries.

Llamrei³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S J Drowne| T: J Hughes

33/1

Has experience of this course but needs to step things up several notches from the level of form she has shown up to press. Others make a touch more appeal.

Form: 55

Mraseel^p¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: M Harley| T: J Tate| OR: 72

9/4

Stepped up to the plate with three solid efforts since making her debut at Newmarket back in April. Very likeable pedigree and starting to very capable of delivering on the promise shown of late. Leading contender here.

Sunset Flyer³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Lemos De Souza| T: Miss A Murphy

50/1

Last on debut at Windsor and needs to step things up considerably before she can be considered as a threat. Breeding hints that another couple of furlongs combined with a bit more experience will suit.

Form: 9

May Girl¹⁴

Forecasts

Tulip Fever (1/1), Mraseel (9/4), Ladycammyofclare (5/1), Kodiac Express (7/1), Watch Tan (25/1), May Girl (25/1), Llamrei (33/1), Sunset Flyer (50/1)

Experience can be a telling factor for MRASEEL, who has done little wrong of late and looks to have been found a decent opportunity to get off the mark. Tulip Fever is the obvious threat and appeals as the best of the rest despite carrying a 6lb penalty, while May Girl is from a yard that does really well with its sprinters and appeals as one to bear in mind for a more adventurous punt.
