Storm Front³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: David Probert| T: S bin Suroor

20/1

Made an unpromising start to his career when only seventh of 13 in maiden at Southwell (7.1f, 11/1) on belated debut 35 days ago. Significantly up in trip.

Form: 7

(9)

George Eliot

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K T O'Neill| T: J & T Gosden

11/2

Golden Horn colt. Dam, 2-y-o 1m winner who stayed 11.5f, out of smart 1¼m-1½m winner Gertrude Bell. Interesting newcomer.

(8)

Idee Fixee¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: A Kirby| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam

10/3

Dubawi colt showed plenty of ability when second of 11 in maiden at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 2/1) on debut 17 days ago. Up in trip. Should improve.

Form: 2

(4)

Whirlwind²⁰⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon

6/1

Promising individual. 4/1, ran on well after missing break and briefly meeting trouble when third of 6 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) on debut. Off 6 months. Up in trip. Should have more to offer.

Form: 3

(3)

Crystal Flow^h³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: P J McDonald| T: W Jarvis

250/1

Modest filly. 200/1 and hooded, first run since leaving H-A. Pantall when seventh of 10 in maiden at Yarmouth (10.1f, good) on UK debut 32 days ago. Difficult to fancy.

Form: 9-7

(2)

Capricious Caitlin¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Rossa Ryan| T: E A L Dunlop

150/1

Twice-raced maiden. 18/1, offered little 5 months after debut when sixth of 8 in minor event at Redcar (8f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Should at least prove better suited by longer trip here.

Form: 86

(1)

Delvey³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Hayley Turner| T: K Jewell

150/1

Once-raced maiden. 28/1, fifth of 8 in maiden at Lingfield (8f, AW) on debut 37 days ago, slowly away and soon detached. Up in trip.

Form: 5

(6)

Modaara³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| BF

5/6

Sister to Benbatl was well fancied and shaped with plenty of encouragement on debut when fourth of 10 in maiden at Yarmouth (10.1f, good) 32 days ago, not knocked about after being carried left 1f out. Will take the beating.

Form: 4

(7)

Sunstone⁸⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: R Kingscote| T: Sir Michael Stoute

33/1

Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in minor event (40/1) at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 87 days ago. Looks to be being brought along gradually.

Form: 97

T: M Crawley J: Non Runner

Forecasts

Modaara (5/6), Idee Fixee (10/3), George Eliot (11/2), Whirlwind (6/1), Storm Front (20/1), Sunstone (33/1), Cendrillon (100/1), Delvey (150/1), Capricious Caitlin (150/1), Crystal Flow (250/1)

Not much between MODAARA and Idee Fixee on the basis of their promising debuts, but preference is marginally for Roger Varian's regally-bred filly. Whirlwind is another likely improver and rates as clear third best.
