Albizzia³⁶⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: R Kingscote| T: R M Beckett

15/8

Boasts a classy pedigree and shaped well on debut on turf last July in a race that has produced several winners since. Only likely to improve with age for this stable and an obvious chance on AW debut.

Form: 4-

(4)

Dawn Of Reckoning⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman

14/1

Has been regressive in two starts since her debut and was reportedly in season when never travelling and subsequently pulled-up on seasonal reappearance. Hard to fancy at this level.

Form: 68-P

(3)

Juneau³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston

13/2

Nicely bred daughter of Dubawi out of an Elusive Quality mare. Unfancied and showed little on debut over C&D last month but stable well capable of extracting significant improvement on a second start.

Form: 8

(7)

Polar Light^p¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: David Egan⁽³⁾| T: D R C Elsworth| OR: 66

3/1

Battled on gamely when narrowly defeated at Kempton that suggested she now needs a test. Surprising to see her slightly back in trip but has raced well here previously and every opportunity with the benefit of her experience.

Form: 969-272

Pollyissimo¹⁹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes

20/1

Well beaten in all three starts to date. A daughter of Nathaniel will appreciate this marked step up in distance but needs to show more.

Form: 700-

(2)

Qaswarah¹⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Jim Crowley| T: E A L Dunlop

8/1

Nayef filly who was unfancied in both runs last year and subsequently well beaten. Last start was a good contest so given time not inconceivable she can improve considerably following the absence.

Form: 09-

(6)

Sarvi

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: M Botti

4/1

Daughter of Group 1 Prix du Jockey Club winner Intello and starting over a realstic distance. Bred to go on an AW surface and for a stable capable of readying a smart newcomer should be noted in the betting.

Form:

Forecasts

Albizzia (15/8), Polar Light (3/1), Sarvi (4/1), Juneau (13/2), Qaswarah (8/1), Dawn Of Reckoning (14/1), Pollyissimo (20/1)

Polar Light looks to have a race of this nature in her and should go close again but remains vulnerable to an improving filly. ALBIZZIA gets the verdict off the back of a promising debut at Leicester last year which has worked out really well. A four-year-old now, she looks the type to be a late developer while it would also be no suprise to see Juneau and Qaswarah leave their previous form behind. Sarvi is an intriguing newcomer should there be market support.
