11/2

Twice-raced maiden. 200/1, ninth of 22 in minor event at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 75 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: S C Williams

9/2

Promising type. 20/1, second of 9 in minor event at this C&D on debut 10 days ago. Should have learned plenty from that experience and is likely to be on the premises.

Form: 2

(5)

Say You'll Never³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Botti

5/1

Once-raced maiden. 3¼ lengths third of 8 to Star Mind in maiden (8/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut 33 days ago, running on. Likely to improve and is worthy of respect.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Fellowes

9/4

Promising individual. 17/2, third of 10 in minor event at Newcastle (6f) on debut 12 days ago. Type to do better and may well have enough to open her account.

Form: 3

Forecasts

Twirler (9/4), Star Mind (10/3), Pandora's Gift (9/2), Say You'll Never (5/1), Majorelle Blue (11/2), Cherryblossom Time (14/1), Impelling (66/1), They (100/1), Amarilla Girl (150/1), Ms Barbaro (200/1)

TWIRLER impressed with the way she travelled when third at Newcastle 12 days ago and that's the best piece of form on show, so she takes narrow preference over Pandora's Gift, who also shaped well (over C&D) first time out. Star Mind isn't a forlorn hope.
