Belle Of York¹²²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Ross Chapman⁽³⁾| T: M TodhunterWS

66/1

Vale of York mare is a half-sister to three winners, though she didn't exhibit great promise in her debut at Wetherby in November and has improvement to find after wind operation since.

Form: P

Blue Baton⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Blair Campbell⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell

14/1

Presenting mare, well held in pair of Musselburgh bumpers so far, leaving her with plenty to work on coming into this.

Form: 35

Derriana Spirit⁷³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: R D Day⁽³⁾| T: N G Richards

6/4

Runner-up in first two starts in this sphere, she failed to settle last time out in a Listed bumper at Market Rasen and forfeited her chance accordingly. This looks more straightforward if she consents to race with the choke in.

Form: 227

Donnas Dream²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Callum Bewley⁽³⁾| T: C Grant

28/1

Up just slightly in trip but may want plenty further in time to showcase her best stuff, judging on breeding and efforts in runs at Newcastle (AW) and Catterick so far.

Form: 64

Fig's Pride^h⁶⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Grant Cockburn⁽³⁾| T: N W Alexander

80/1

Sent off 50/1 in pair of bumpers at Kelso, one on good / one on heavy, unable to pose any sort of threat in either.

Form: 06

Lady Samback^t²⁵⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Dale Irving⁽³⁾| T: M A Barnes

50/1

Ran well on good ground the last twice most recently when finishing third at Perth in July. Returns from a break today but needs to improve if she's to take this contest.

Form: 0-53

Lily's Gem⁹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: S R B Crawford

5/2

Daughter of Scorpion, finished third (beaten 30L) on debut at Down Royal on Boxing Day, should have learned from that outing and entitled to improve - will have to.

Form: 3

Sailing Away

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Finian O'Toole⁽³⁾| T: Mrs S Walton

66/1

An €8,000 three-year-old, Stowaway mare whose dam was an unraced sister to Champion Hurdle winner Rooster Booster. Market can guide ahead of debut run.

Form:

Sueno Toms⁵⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: S Mulqueen⁽³⁾| T: N W Alexander

100/1

Five-year-old daughter of Oscar made her racecourse debut at Newcastle recently and couldn't beat any of 11 rivals home. Best watched on that evidence.

Form: 0

Rosey

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: C O'Farrell| T: R Dobbin

15/2

Multiplex filly makes decent appeal on paper and hasn't been handed the toughest task on debut, any money would be worth noting.

Form:

Ruby Tiger

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Andrew Tinkler| T: H D Daly

4/1

Sulamani filly is related to multiple winners and could be capable of getting into the thick of things on this racecourse bow, one to pay attention to in the market.

Forecasts

Derriana Spirit (6/4), Lily's Gem (5/2), Ruby Tiger (4/1), Rosey (15/2), Blue Baton (14/1), Donnas Dream (28/1), Lady Samback (50/1), Sailing Away (66/1), Belle Of York (66/1), Fig's Pride (80/1), Sueno Toms (100/1)

DERRIANA SPIRIT exhibited enough promise in her first two runs to get the nod here. She was much to free when tried in a Listed bumper last time and, if she settled, should find this drop in class gives her an excellent chance to open the account. The others that have run don't set the pulse racing, with Lady Samback maybe the best of them, so newcomers Ruby Tiger and Rosey are of more interest in the betting.
