Dark Angel filly. Half-sister to several winners, including high-class winner up to 8.3f Space Blues and very smart winner up to 9.5f Shuruq. Makes plenty of appeal on pedigree.

Dalrymple¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Connor Planas⁽⁵⁾| T: E A L Dunlop

200/1

Cracksman filly from a classy staying family (half-sister to Dal Harraild and Dal Horrisgle). Some encouragement on both starts to date but needs further and will likely be brought along gradually.

Form: 46

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Davies⁽³⁾| T: C Appleby

9/2

Frankel filly. Dam winner up to 1¼m (Prix Saint-Alary and 2-y-o 1m winner). One to note on debut. Wears hood.

100/1

Signs of ability both starts to date but looks like more one for handicaps on the back of this.

Ludmilla²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden

7/2

Plenty of encouragement when third at this course on debut last year and is easily excused her reappearance (still green and on the wrong part of the track), so looks a big player.

Form: 3-9

(5)

Platinum Jubilee

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: A M BaldingWS

33/1

65,000 gns yearling, Oasis Dream filly. Half-sister to 6f-7f winner Sip And Smile. Dam unraced sister to high-class 1m-1¼m winner Arod. Worth a market check.

Form:

Spring Dawn²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: James Doyle| T: C Appleby

8/11

Related to three winners and made an eye-catching start when second (conceded first run and finished strongly) over C&D on debut. Looks open to a good deal of improvement and should be up to opening his account this time.

Form: 2

(6)

Valtellina

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽⁷⁾| T: Harry Eustace

50/1

35,000 gns foal, 52,000 gns yearling, Caravaggio filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart French/UAE 5f-7f winner Al Tariq and useful French winner up to 5.5f Lehaim. Dam lightly raced. Stable has been going well lately.

Forecasts

Spring Dawn (8/11), Ludmilla (7/2), English Rose (9/2), Beautiful Summer (17/2), Al Haan (18/1), Platinum Jubilee (33/1), Valtellina (50/1), Achillea (66/1), Ludden Lass (100/1), Ali Jewels (100/1), Dalrymple (200/1)

SPRING DAWN finished with running left when an encouraging second over C&D on debut and, with improvement on the cards, she's likely to open her account at the second attempt. Ludmilla remains with potential despite an underwhelming return, so she's regarded as the main threat ahead of Beautiful Summer, a stablemate of the selection who boasts an excellent pedigree.
