11/4

Shamardal half-sister to smart winners Laughing (1m-1m3f) and Comic Strip (6f-1½m). Favourite when landing a Newmarket maiden on debut and should progress for the experience. Entered in the Group One Fillies' Mile.

Air Force Amy

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: David Egan| T: M R Channon

16/1

Daughter of Sixties Icon and a sister of 1m2f winner Nancy From Nairobi. Stable can pop up with juvenile winners at this time of the year so well worth a look at in the betting.

Dalakina

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Varian

5/1

Mastercraftsman filly who fetched 40,000 gns as a yearling and is from the family of Coronation Stakes winner Balasida. Likely to know her job as she makes her racecourse debut.

Gamba

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: J P Spencer| T: R Hannon

4/1

Cape Cross filly who is a sister to useful juvenile performer Gibeon. Makes her debut for a yard which is traditionally strong with its juveniles, so she is certainly one to keep an eye on for market support.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: W Buick| T: G G Margarson| OR: 93

11/8

Stepped up on some solid efforts when a fine third of seven in a 7f Group 3 contest at Newmarket. Obvious chance on form and extra distance of this contest ought to suit.

Forecasts

Model Guest (11/8), Shambolic (11/4), Gamba (4/1), Dalakina (5/1), Thermal (10/1), Air Force Amy (16/1)

Four of the six runners are newcomers and Dalakina and Gamba may be the best of them. However, one of the debutants will need to be smart to lower the colours of SHAMBOLIC, who won well on debut at Newmarket and holds an entry in the Fillies' Mile at that venue. Model Guest has produced a good level of form and has to be taken seriously.
