Selected odds by:

(5)

Grape Soda²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: T P Queally| T: J Gallagher

100/1

Swiss Spirit filly and a half-sister to three winners including multiple scorer Dear Bruin. Beaten 15L into ninth on debut at Wolverhampton (1m1½f) last month and needs to improve significantly on that.

Form: 9

(3)

Beautiful Illusion²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: B A Curtis| T: C Appleby

1/2

Shamardal filly whose dam was a 7f Group 3 winner. Sent off favourite when making a comfortable winning debut at Wolverhampton (1m1½f) last month. Open to further improvement for leading connections who and will be hard to beat.

Form: 1

(7)

Allez Louise⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Miss A Murphy

10/1

Acclamation filly out of dam who won over 7f on AW. Shaped well on debut despite being 40/1 to finish third at Wolverhampton (7f), beaten 3¾L. Not sure the extra trip is required on pedigree but she boasts some of the best form on offer.

Form: 3

(8)

Glitter Queen¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Stefano Cherchi⁽⁷⁾| T: M Botti

9/2

23,000gns purchase who showed ability at Kempton (7f) on debut. Matched that effort when beaten ¾L second at Lingfield (1m) last time and although she'll need to improve to win, she hasn't done a lot wrong thus far.

Form: 32

(6)

Lady De Vega^h¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: P J McDonald| T: M Botti

7/1

42,000gns yearling. Half-sister to three winners, including one on AW (5f). Looked in need of the experience on her debut (7f) here two weeks ago, racing in rear and never getting involved. Big improvement required to be a player.

Form: 6

(4)

Lokal Heroine¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Charlie Bennett| T: B R Millman

66/1

By Leroidesanimeaux; dam was a 7f-1m winner (inc. Italian 1000 Guineas). Sent off at 40/1 and came home last of seven after always racing in rear at Kempton (7f) on her recent debut. Best watched until showing some ability.

Form: 7

(1)

Maharg's Princess

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: S W Kelly| T: D O'Meara

12/1

€23,000 yearling; seventh foal; half-sister to Group 3 Sruthan (7f/1m) and winner Sruachan (5f/6f). Yard can ready a newcomer and the market will be the best guide to her chances.

Form:

(2)

Mdina

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Hayley Turner| T: P W Chapple-Hyam

16/1

11th foal; half-sister to five winners; Divine Unicorn (6f-1m3f/Group 3), Measuring Time (7f) and Mutamid (7f/1m1½f) dam fourth in Oaks. Two of those siblings made winning debuts and yard have occasional newcomers go in; market best guide.

Form:

(9)

Netiquette⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston

25/1

Out of a 6f-1m2f winning half-sister to 1m2½f AW Flat winner Archer's Up. Led for a long way before weakening at Newcastle (1m) on debut eight days ago but that experience won't be lost on her for a leading yard.

Form: 5

Forecasts

Beautiful Illusion (1/2), Glitter Queen (9/2), Lady De Vega (7/1), Allez Louise (10/1), Maharg's Princess (12/1), Mdina (16/1), Netiquette (25/1), Lokal Heroine (66/1), Grape Soda (100/1)

After making a comfortable winning debut at Wolverhampton, BEAUTIFUL ILLUSION has been found a good opportunity to follow-up. Allez Louise and Glitter Queen have both shaped promisingly so far but will need to improve whilst Netiquette should come on for her debut at Newcastle last week. The newcomers should only be noted if strong in the betting.
