Balancing Act¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: G Lee| T: Jedd O'Keeffe

10/1

£42,000 yearling by No Nay Never and related to plenty of winners. Proved very green and soon got well behind on this month's Newcastle (AW) debut but the penny seemed to drop late and she made some late progress. Likely improver.

Form: 6

(7)

Barbarella³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan

9/2

Hot Streak filly, cost £42,000 as a yearling. Unfancied and never threatened on last month's York debut but did make some late headway and bred to appreciate this extra test and further in time. Place possibilities if building on that.

Form: 7

(5)

Carriesmatic

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R P Downey| T: T D Barron

80/1

Daughter of Passing Glance with plenty of stamina on dam's side as well. Likely to need much further in time and best watched on debut.

Form:

(10)

Cece Ceylon¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Rob Hornby| T: R M Beckett

8/1

Iffraaj filly cost 50,000 gns as a foal and 75,000 gns as a yearling. Didn't quite have the pace but still ran a race of great promise, when not getting the clearest of runs, at Sandown on debut. Likely to improve up from 5f and a main challenger.

Form: 4

(1)

Champagne Angel

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby

16/1

Daughter of Dark Angel who cost 28,000 gns as a yearling. Pace on dam's side too and starting over a realistic distance. Stable quiet with their juveniles so market likely best guide on debut

Form:

(3)

Ellenor Gray¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey

12/1

Gutaifan filly, cost €155,000 as a foal. Half-sister to five winners, three juvenile winners including at Group 3. Proved green on last month's Wetherby debut before some moderate late headway. Should improve but a lot more needed.

Form: 8

(8)

Havana Dawn⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S H James| T: Phillip Makin

5/1

Havana Gold half-sister to 5f-6½f winner Sing Something from family of Wokingham winner Laddies Poker Two. Improved for debut when a front running fourth over this C&D. Seemed to enjoy cut in the ground and a live danger.

Form: 54

(4)

Hot Touch

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: H Palmer

9/1

Daughter of Hot Streak fetched €100,000 as a yearling; first foal to a Group-placed 6f winner, including as a juvenile. A lot to like on paper for a stable just getting going with their two-year-olds. Well worth a check in the market on debut.

Form:

(11)

Imperial Gloriana

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara

9/2

Daughter of Kingman; a third foal and closely related to 7f winner Ramesses and a half-sister to 7f/1m winner Borodin. Distance should be fine on breeding and worth a market check on debut for a stable among the juvenile winners.

Form:

(12)

Knock Annie¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke

18/1

Daughter of Dandy Man cost 65,000 gns as a juvenile; an 11th foal and a half-sister to five winners in USA. Looked in need of the run on this month's 5f Nottingham debut and extra furlong may help but plenty more required.

Form: 8

(2)

Secret Identity²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe

16/1

Equiano filly; half-sister to useful two-year-old Ingenuity. Finished a 6L sixth on fast ground over this trip on last month's Redcar debut. Different ground here but a lot of improvement required to get involved.

Form: 6

(13)

The Works

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Cam Hardie| T: D Carroll

14/1

No Nay Never filly and a second foal to a dam who was Italian Listed-placed. Stable are in flying form and have made a good start with their few juveniles. One very much to note in the market on debut.

Go Well Spicy¹

Weight: 9-0| Age: 2

T: M R Channon J: F Norton

Forecasts

Go Well Spicy (15/8), Barbarella (9/2), Imperial Gloriana (9/2), Havana Dawn (5/1), Cece Ceylon (8/1), Hot Touch (9/1), Balancing Act (10/1), Ellenor Gray (12/1), The Works (14/1), Secret Identity (16/1), Champagne Angel (16/1), Knock Annie (18/1), Carriesmatic (80/1)

GO WELL SPICY has run on so well over 5f in her first two races that she's likely hard to beat over this distance with proven form also in these conditions. She is declared elsewhere on Monday and should she not make the line up then the pacy Havana Dawn looks most likely to take advantage of those with experience. However there's some interesting debutantes who could prove well up to the task, in particular Hot Touch who is bred to be forward. Imperial Gloriana is another to note in the betting while The Works shouldn't be underestimated on debut for a stable who can do little wrong at present.
