Poet's Vision⁶⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: T D Barron| OR: 62

5/1

Caught the eye on qualifying run when midfield in a 15-runner Thirsk novice (6f) in June, steady progress 2f out without getting on terms. Easy to back, never figured on nursery bow at Beverley in July but gelded subsequently and he's not one to write off.

Form: 0070

Lupset Flossy Pop³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: Rowan Scott| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 62

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 9/1, below pick of form when sixth of 7 in nursery at Musselburgh (5f, soft) 37 days ago, weakening final 1f having not been ideally placed. Steps up in trip now.

Form: 43356

(5)

Stormy Pearl³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Jonny Peate⁽⁵⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 60| BF| D

6/1

Showed improved form to make winning nursery debut at Hamilton (6f) in July, making all. Matched rather than built on that in 2 of her 3 starts since but mark is easing again and rider takes off handy 7 lb on AW debut.

Form: 061446

(7)

Fortuitous Star⁶²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 56| BF

7/2

Lightly-raced maiden who finished runner-up behind re-opposing Stormy Pearl at Hamilton (6f) on his penultimate start. Backed that up when third of 12 in nursery at Doncaster (6f) in July and she's a player again.

Form: 986223

How Exciting^h1³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: D Allan| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 56

7/1

Lightly-raced maiden who ran best race when runner-up on nursery bow at Beverley (5f) in August, headeed final 100 yds and no extra. Not in quite the same form when fourth of 7 in nursery at Musselburgh (5f) 37 days ago. Hood on/back up in trip.

Form: 67724

(6)

Megatron^b²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: P J McDonald| T: E Bethell| OR: 55

11/4

Showed a bit more than previously having been gelded/fitted with blinkers when seventh of 10 in a Thirsk novice (7f) 4 weeks ago. However, he'll need to find a good bit more to open his account here.

Form: 007

(4)

Development^v⁷¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Russell⁽³⁾| T: G R Oldroyd| OR: 53

16/1

Well held in seller at York on debut and fared only a little better in novice events at Beverley/Doncaster (at upto 7f) since. Does at least now get a crack at handicaps so worth noting if market spoke in her favour.

Form: 007

(9)

Kasino¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Harrison Shaw| T: B Smart| OR: 49

22/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, ninth of 14 in maiden at Beverley (5f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Good deal more needed on AW/handicap debut.

Form: 099

(3)

Streetwise Girl^p⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: J P Sullivan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 45

12/1

Tenth of 11 in nursery at Redcar (6f, good to firm, 125/1) 9 days ago, dropping away from 2f out. Needs to find some improvement to play a meaningful role here.

Form: 739760

Forecasts

Megatron (11/4), Fortuitous Star (7/2), Poet's Vision (5/1), Stormy Pearl (6/1), How Exciting (7/1), Streetwise Girl (12/1), Lupset Flossy Pop (14/1), Development (16/1), Kasino (22/1)

POET'S VISION never made an impact on nursery debut at Beverley back in July but had previously displayed definite signs of promise on his qualifying run in novice events and, given a break/gelded, it would come as no surprise to see a better showing. Stormy Pearl and Fortuitous Star rate next best, ahead of How Exciting.
