Tunes Of Glory¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 80

5/2

A winner on his debut on the AW at Lingfield over 6f he's been tried over this trip on a couple of occasions now the last time on his first experience of turf. Perhaps he should have won on that start but he doesn't look to be progressing as he should.

Form: 1632

Fabulous Red³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Oisin Murphy| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 77

5/2

Makes her handicap debut here having shown some fair form in maidens so far making her AW debut last time. All her starts have come over 6f and she may need to settle a little better to last out this extra furlong.

Form: 244

(7)

Tig Tog¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 75

7/2

So far not really producing in nurseries what she promised to do in maidens and she looks as though she might be need some headgear on being slow to get going. The mark she started off looked fair enough and the reduced mark may see her perform better.

Form: 52483

(3)

Collateral¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: M Harley| T: J Tate| OR: 74

7/1

One of four handicap debutantes in this he's started to look rather disappointing in maidens and could be in danger of going the wrong way. The blinkers worn last time are left of here but overall he may be one to be wary of.

Form: 46256

(6)

Royal Liberty⁵⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 73

25/1

Successful over 6f on his second start at Brighton he's been well beaten since in two outings although he may well have had the ground as an excuse last time on handicap debut. Up in trip now on his AW debut but from a yard that do well with juveniles.

Form: 4147

Retained³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: H Crouch⁽³⁾| T: J R Best| OR: 67

6/1

Always looked the type to do better in nurseries and came into her debut off the back of a break. She may well have needed that run and it did come on turf with her best form so far being reserved for Polytrack and she may appreciate the return to this surface.

Form: 6338

Forecasts

Fabulous Red (5/2), Tunes Of Glory (5/2), Tig Tog (7/2), Retained (6/1), Collateral (7/1), Bomad (16/1), Royal Liberty (25/1)

The first nursery on the card but it doesn’t look full of improvers in this grade and those at the head of the market don’t look as though they are ahead of their marks. Neither Tunes Of Glory or Tig Tog look to be progressing as expected and Fabulous Red needs to settle better to see out this 7f trip. Collateral looks as though he could go the wrong way and it may be worth chancing RETAINED at a likely decent price to get back on track returned to what looks to be her best surface. Royal Liberty needs to bounce back but does come from a yard doing well with their two-year-olds this season.
