Zim Baby^h²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Ray Dawson| T: M Appleby| OR: 85| D

9/4

Opened her account for the year at Windsor in April but more miss than hit since, only fifth of 7 back there 25 days ago. Back down to her last winning mark and worthy of a market check back against her own sex.

Fox Hill^p²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: K Stott| T: E J Alston| OR: 75| D

11/2

Bolted up at Nottingham in June and nailed in the final stride dropped to the minimum trip in her follow up bid at this track 8 days later. Not so good on her last couple of outings though, and the cheekpieces replace the visor she's been wearing more recently.

Form: 901259

Dreams Of Thunder^h⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Barry McHugh| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 78| BF| D

3/1

Didn't really progress as hoped from her debut last year. However, she got off the mark on her handicap bow at Nottingham in May first start since leaving Robert Cowell and went close to following up at Goodwood 17 days later. Interesting making her return after a couple of months off.

Form: 2923-12

Palifico^h³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Connor Murtagh| T: P Morris| OR: 74

33/1

Maiden who ran well to fill runner-up spot on all 4 starts for Jane Chapple-Hyam earlier this year. Not so good on first outing for her new yard at this track just over 5 weeks ago and needs to leave that effort well behind to feature.

Form: 9-22229

True Jem¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 77| D

10/3

Cosy winner of a 6f Goodwood handicap in June, form which has been subsequently well-advertised by the second and third. Run here easily excused next time and as expected, got back on track when third at Newmarket just under a fortnight ago. In the mix.

Form: 633173

Little Miss Dynamo^t¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K Shoemark| T: H Palmer| OR: 77| D

15/2

Starspangledbanner filly who landed pair of Ripon novice events (both at 6f) for Tom Dascombe last summer. However she's failed to beat a rival on both outings this term which leaves her with plenty to prove at present.

Form: 1125-77

Forecasts

Zim Baby (9/4), Dreams Of Thunder (3/1), True Jem (10/3), Fox Hill (11/2), Little Miss Dynamo (15/2), Palifico (33/1)

A tricky contest to unravel despite the small field but preference is for TRUE JEM. Karl Burke's filly got back on track at Newmarket just under a fortnight ago, and with this drop back to 6f sure to be in her favour, she can notch a third win of the year. The returning Dreams of Thunder has made a fine start for Amy Murphy so she heads up the opposition, with top-weight Zim Baby completing the shortlist.
