Scooted home on seasonal debut at Nottingham this season and has continued to run to a good level, although a bit disappointing on soft ground at York in May so may not want ground too deep. That aside, still looked to have more to offer after a good run at York last time. Not discounted.

Ran well on debut at Haydock when second to Rosie Briar (went on to win at Listed class) and made no mistake at Yarmouth on second start. Possibly bit off more than she could chew in a Listed event at Newmarket but that shows the regard she's held in, and with no ground issues here, looks a major player.

Halted a run of poor form when bouncing back to finish a close third at Ripon last time out (5f), sticking to the task well late in the day. Well handicapped now and may need the ground to dry out hold his best chance.

Just the three starts to date and ran best race on final start of last season when third to Victory Angel here in November. Worth a try at 5f, given he showed good speed that day, but may need this after an absence. Others preferred today.

Appears not to quite have the talent of her half-sister Marsha, but nevertheless useful in her own right and did well to finish second at Newcastle last time, given how hard she pulled early. Slow ground here would ask a new question but looks progressive and hard to dismiss entirely.

9/1
Won in lower grade at Catterick in April, staying on well to lead late in the day but didn't build on that at Thirsk next time and may find a few of these too progressive. Others hold stronger claims.

Forecasts

Justanotherbottle (6/4), Loving (3/1), Marseille (4/1), Somewhere Secret (7/1), Kodicat (9/1), Monks Stand (14/1)

Verdict

The one that might prove better than this grade in time is LOVING, who looked a smart prospect last year and can continue her progression here. Marseille is another that may have more to offer but does need to show she handles this ground. Justanotherbottle will give this a go from the front but may find others progressing past her tonight.
