Angelina D'or⁷³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 79

1/1

Sets the standard on form and with a BHA rating of 79 which should be good enough to win an average maiden such as this. Has lacked a turn of foot but the longer trip helps.

Form: 423-

(2)

Coralie¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Rob Hornby| T: W R Muir

33/1

Half-sister to three AW winners for this yard including nine-time winner Siouxperhero. All three were handicap winners off marks in the 50s and 60s and she looks likely to follow suit.

Form: 64

(6)

Imperial Act^h¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Oisin Murphy| T: D M Simcock

7/2

Daughter of Frankel out of dual two-year-old winner and Listed-placed mare Victrix Ludorum. Weak in the market on debut but the run was not without promise and she will know a lot more this time.

Form: 5

(3)

Marble Statue¹⁷²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: Miss A Murphy

9/2

35,000 gns yearling and a half-sister to five winners including Mabait. Looked green on debut for Ralph Beckett but not beaten far and looked the type to do better at this sort of trip. Joined new yard for 18,000 gns and a market check is advised.

Form: 5-

(5)

Valerie's Memory¹⁸⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D C Costello| T: P Hide

66/1

Sixties Icon filly who cost just £1,200 as a yearling and who has plenty to find judged on her debut last August.

Form: 0-

(4)

Whispering Sands

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: H Crouch| T: H J L Dunlop

5/1

Dubawi filly out of John Oxx's Irish Oaks runner-up Roses For The Lady. With that bloodline one would hope she was above average. If that is the case she should go close in a race such as this.

Forecasts

Angelina D'or (1/1), Imperial Act (7/2), Marble Statue (9/2), Whispering Sands (5/1), Coralie (33/1), Valerie's Memory (66/1)

All in all this looks a tricky event and one where the market would be expected to point punters in the right direction.Angelina D'or has the form in the book but a lack of a gear change may leave her vulnerable to a less exposed sort. Imperial Act and Marble Statue both shaped well on their debuts and will improve on those showings here. WHISPERING SANDS has an enviable pedigree and has been offered an excellent opportunity to open her account at the first time of asking.
