Poppy Kay (9/4), Shaama Grise (5/2), Annie Alainn (7/2), Bobble Boru (8/1), Hannah Just Hannah (8/1), Deja Bougg (12/1), Hope's Wishes (20/1), Blue Court (25/1)

Verdict

It’s hard to rule out Annie Alainn here who is chasing a four-timer but the handicapper may just be tightening his grip on her now and she faces a tough test here giving weight away to all bar one of her rivals here. Poppy Kay looks an improver now that she goes handicapping and it’s not hard to see her winning in this sphere soon. SHAAMA GRISE makes her stable and handicap debut here and she's a relatively unknown quantity for the handicapper to assess and could be on a lenient mark for her U.K. debut. 1. Shaama Grise 2. Poppy Kay 3. Annie Alainn
