Eshtora²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: R Coakley| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 77

9/2

Shamardal filly who justified support to make a winning debut in a Wolverhampton novice (8.6f) early last month. Similar form despite finishing last of 6 in a conditions' event at Kempton (1m) since and she remains with potential now handicapping.

Form: 16

(2)

Lucia Joy^p¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: W Buick| T: G Boughey| OR: 75

11/4

Ulysses filly. Proved easy to back but matched previous best in first-time cheekpieces when landing 9-runner Thirsk maiden (7f) 12 days ago, making all. Expected to go well again on handicap debut.

Form: 2321

(3)

Smiling Jayne¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: K Shoemark| T: D O'Meara| OR: 74

14/1

120,000 purchase as a yearling who shaped well when runner-up on debut in a Haydock novice (1m) last summer. Not matched that either start since, including on return at Ayr (7.2f) but does now get a crack at handicaps and one to monitor closely in the betting.

Form: 26-3

(5)

Reel Rosie¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: E Bethell| OR: 72

9/4

Redcar novice winner (7f) as a 2-y-o who arrives having run best race when runner-up on return/handicap debut at Nottingham (8.3f) in April, beaten only by one well ahead of its mark. One to be interested in.

Form: 12-2

(4)

Convection¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Rob Hornby| T: R M Beckett| OR: 72

4/1

Career-best when ending 2-y-o campaign with success in a Kempton nursery (7f) and similar form when third on return at Nottingham (8.3f) last month (Reel Rosie placed second). Should give another good account.

Form: 55581-3

(6)

Doolily^p1²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 69

12/1

Fair maiden who made frame on 4 of her 5 starts in novice events at up to 7f last year. Strictly below best on back of 4 months off at Bath (1m) in April though, and cheekpieces go on now handicapping.

Form: 52223-4

Reel Rosie (9/4), Lucia Joy (11/4), Convection (4/1), Eshtora (9/2), Doolily (12/1), Smiling Jayne (14/1)

A well-backed winner on debut, ESHTORA wasn't seen to best effect when last of 6 in a Kempton conditions' event over this trip last month, in need of a stronger gallop. Remaining with potential ahead of this switch to handicaps, she shades the vote to get back on track, with Reel Rosie and Lucia Joy fancied to pose the chief threats.
