Hold A Dream

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

9/4

Foaled February 21. €25,000 foal, Bated Breath filly. Dam, French 7f winner, half-sister to winner up to 7f Dream Eater and winner up to 13f Dreamspeed (both smart) out of useful 10.5f winner Kapria. Interesting newcomer, even more so if strong in the betting.

Form:

Mollymook^h1

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: Darryll Holland

33/1

Foaled March 31. Sergei Prokofiev filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful French 1¼m-1½m winner Not After Hours and 1½m winner Soldier To Follow. Dam French 1½m/12.5f winner. Hood fitted for debut.

(3)

Pearl Of Windsor¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Darragh Keenan| T: C Allen

11/2

160,000 gns yearling, Pinatubo filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart 5f winner Raasel. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Promising start amidst inexperience when fourth at Newmarket last month. Tame finishing effort at Ascot 15 days later but one to beat on early form.

Form: 44

Forecasts

Hold A Dream (9/4), Clover Time (9/4), Hucklesbrook (9/2), Pearl Of Windsor (11/2), Beautiful Things (7/1), Rage Of Thunder (28/1), Mollymook (33/1)

CLOVER TIME left his debut run trailing in his wake when runner-up at Thirsk a fortnight ago and with further progress on the cards, he's awarded the vote. Pearl of Windsor was most disappointing at Ascot but is a huge danger on her debut performance, with Hold A Dream a newcomer to note if the vibes are positive.
