4/5

Lightly-raced maiden. Good fourth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 11/4) 12 days ago. Return to 7f will suit and she just about sets the standard.

Forecasts

Glittering Lights (4/5), Renesmee (5/2), Class Member (9/1), Creme De Cacao (11/1), Sure Spirit (14/1), Galexia (14/1), Passing Storm (50/1), Sparks Fly (100/1)

RENESMEE performed with credit when third in a reasonable novice at Ascot when last seen in the autumn so she could be the way to go. The return to 7f will suit Glittering Lights and she's a threat, while a case can be made for all 3 debutantes, notably Galexia.
