8/1

Lightly-raced winner. Tongue strap on for 1st time, career best when winning 14-runner maiden (66/1) at this C&D 9 days ago, just holding on. This is much tougher though.

Forecasts

Moral Turpitude (10/11), Francis Meynell (9/4), Scorchio (11/2), Tarsus (8/1), Elliott (40/1), Freedom Ring (300/1)

MORAL TURPITUDE holds much the best form on the back of her C&D success so rates a confident choice to follow up. Francis Meynell is feared most now lowered in grade, with recent C&D winner Scorchio also in the mix.
