Selected odds by:
Three good runs last year and she finished off with a close second in the valuable Redcar Two-Year-Old Trophy in October. Underperformed on return when market signals were ominous. Visor fitted and up in trip so there are questions to be answered.
Newcomer by Frankel's pacemaker Bullet Train out of a modest sprint bred dam. Hard to recommend on that pedigree.
Last of eleven on Kempton debut despite an AW pedigree. Looked green that day but any improvement needs to be dramatic.
Caught the eye on debut when hampered and noted staying on hard under a considerate ride. Drop to 7f not guaranteed to suit and best checked in the market.
Dick Turpin colt out of a 5f winner. Stable don't have many winning newcomers and he is best watched for the future.
Down the field on both starts and hard to see where the improvement needed is going to come from.
Cityscape half-brother to Look My Way a winning hurdler and effective from 1m4f-2m2f on the Flat. May find some of these too quick on debut.
14-race maiden who has been placed in Listed company in France. The way those races were run and his latest performances suggest he is flattered by that form. This still represents a more suitable test and blinkers tried now.
Half-sister to eight winners out of a dam who was a juvenile 5f winner. Fetched 110,000 gns as a yearling. Eyecatching debut from an awkward draw and after missing the break. Finished 1¼L behind Flying Sparkle and would be expected to improve.
Forecasts
Flying Sparkle (11/8), Bidding War (11/4), Uther Pendragon (6/1), Urban Aspect (10/1), Greaves (10/1), Deva Dandy (20/1), Krampus (25/1), Telltale (33/1), Bulletin (33/1)
Flying Sparkle sets a high standard on her Totepool Trophy form, but it seems ominous she was easy to back on her return when the weights were heavily in her favour and that a visor goes on here. BIDDING WAR was just behind Michael Bell's filly at Yarmouth when poorly drawn and looking green. Her fitness will have to be taken on trust but she will not need to have made much progress to prove the one to beat in this. Uther Pendragon is hard to evaluate as his form in France looks better than anything he has achieved here. Greaves caught the eye on his debut, however the drop in trip is not certain to suit.
