Hastily³

3/1

Irish raider who stepped up plenty on her reappearance run when second of 13 in handicap at Naas (1m) in June. Weak in betting and well below that level when last of 8 at Chepstow 91m) 3 days ago, doing too much too soon. Drops back markedly in trip now.

Forecasts

Four Adaay (13/8), Hastily (3/1), Level Up (4/1), Magnificence (13/2), Trusty Rusty (15/2), Full Authority (50/1)

FOUR ADAAY has been running consistently well this term, runner-up at Chepstow on her latest start, and, with first-time blinkers enlisted, she looks to hold sound claims once more under Oisin Murphy. Irish raider Hastily went off too hard at Chepstow 3 days ago but had been in good form previously and could bounce back. Level Up completes the shortlist.
