Masked Identity

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: J Fanning| T: K Frost

10/1

Cost 210,000 gns as a yearling but current trainer bought him from Godolphin for £12,000 in December. Dam dual Group 2 winner at 1m2f and related to four winners at around that trip. Interesting to see what the market makes of him on belated debut.

Paddy's Pursuit³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Liam Jones| T: D M Loughnane

5/1

Has shown ability both starts and his fourth over C&D has been franked by the runner up since. Handicaps an option after this.

Form: 4-4

(3)

Sharrabang

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Finley Marsh⁽³⁾| T: Mrs Stella Barclay

66/1

Third foal. Dam finished fourth in a Bumper on first run. Yard not normally associated with debut winners in this sphere.

Twpsyn²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: E J Walsh| T: P D Evans| OR: 67

12/1

Stayed on into well beaten third over 6f here last time but needs to improve on that although the longer trip should be a plus.

Form: 8-953

April Wine²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: L Morris| T: C G Cox

13/2

18,000 gns as a yearling. Too green to do herself justice on belated debut over C&D last month but sure to know more this time and likely to leave that form behind.

Form: 7

Plumette⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Barry McHugh| T: R A Fahey

8/13

Not much was expected on Newcastle debut but belied her odds of 25/1 with a promising second of 10 and finished clear of the remainder. Normal improvement should see her play a prominent role.

Form: 2

(7)

Remembering You³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: David Probert| T: C G Cox

28/1

Showed a little ability on debut but drop down to 6f last time was all against. Better to come at this trip in time.

Form: 5-7

Forecasts

Plumette (8/13), Brandon (4/1), Paddy's Pursuit (5/1), April Wine (13/2), Masked Identity (10/1), Twpsyn (12/1), Remembering You (28/1), Sharrabang (66/1)

A weak finale and PLUMETTE showed enough on debut at Newcastle to suggest that a race like this should be within her grasp. April Wine can leave her debut effort behind while a market move for the newcomer Masked Identity would make him of interest.
