Jousi²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: H Palmer| OR: 84| D

9/2

Finished 2¼ adrift of Poetic Charm on her debut but improved to score over 7f (good to soft) at Ascot next time. Outclassed in a Group 3 subsequently when again adrift of Poetic Charm, so clearly something to find.

Form: 419

(3)

Poetic Charm²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: James Doyle| T: C Appleby| BF| D

2/7

Had Jousi and other subsequent winners in arrears when scoring first time out and again had Jousi behind when fifth in the Group 3 Sweet Solera Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good to soft). The one to beat, providing she acts on polytrack.

Form: 15-

(1)

Santorini Sun¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S De Sousa| T: M R Channon

14/1

Overcame a slow start to win first time out on heavy ground over 5f at Sandown and by no means disgraced from a wide draw in a Group 3 event over 7f at Goodwood next time. This more realistic with improvement likely.

Form: 18

(4)

Club Tropicana¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Dane O'Neill| T: R Spencer

12/1

Cost £25,000 as a yearling and shaped with a degree of promise when sixth of 16 on her debut over 6f at Yarmouth last month. Likely to do better over this extra furlong without being quite good enough.

Form: 6

(2)

Moggy⁷¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hughes

50/1

Signs of promise first time out when third over 6f at Lingfield but took a step backwards when stepped up to 7f at Newbury next time, beating only a couple home. Likely to appreciate the return to polytrack but looks up against it.

Form: 30

Forecasts

Poetic Charm (2/7), Jousi (9/2), Club Tropicana (12/1), Santorini Sun (14/1), Moggy (50/1)

POETIC CHARM has twice beaten Jousi with something to spare and, being a half-sister to the Group 1 winner, Teofilio, there should be much more to come from her. She should prove a cut above here with Santorini Sun taken to chase her home.
