15/2

Nighteyes²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara

13/8

Much improved from Doncaster debut (decent form) when close second at Ayr (6f). Can progress further and leading claims.

Out Of Line²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke

6/1

Just modest form in 2 starts, although not seen to best effect when third in a race that has worked out well at Haydock (6f) last time. Can do better.

Form: 73

Sassy Glory

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Faye McManoman| T: N Tinkler

Foaled February 27. Oasis Dream filly. Closely related to 6f-1¼m winner Freeman and half-sister to several winners, including winner up to 6f Ben Hall. Dam 7f/1m winner (including at 2 yrs). Yard among the winners but don't get too many successful 2-y-os first time up.

Symbology

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: C G Cox

2/1

Foaled February 15. £230,000 yearling, Havana Grey filly. Sister to 2-y-o 5f winner Katey Kontent, closely related to smart winner up to 7f El Caballo and half-sister to 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Avengers Queen. Lots to like on paper and her entry in the Lowther here next month catches the eye.

Forecasts

Nighteyes (13/8), Symbology (2/1), Out Of Line (6/1), Looking For Queen (15/2), Fighting Wren (15/2), Sassy Glory (25/1), La Habanera (28/1), Goldmine Girl (100/1)

A disappointing turnout for the money and a race that probably won't take much winning, so newcomer SYMBOLOGY, who makes plenty of appeal on paper, gets the vote before market clues. She's certainly bred to make an impact early in her career and a Lowther entry looks ominous. Nighteyes sets the standard and shouldn't be far away. Looking For Queen is another to note on debut, while Out Of Line probably has a bigger performance in her.
