Dathanna^h¹⁹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 88| BF

10/11

Progressed with each start last year in ground softer than ideal. Trainer could hardly be in better form and he has a particularly good record here. Likely this filly is capable of more and she's worthy of plenty of respect despite conceding weight.

Form: 74112-

Crown Vallary¹⁸⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J McDonald| T: K R Burke| OR: 93

4/1

Runner-up at Thirsk on debut and ran well when campaigned in France in three starts subsequently. Market should reveal if she's ready to go on her return but she probably needs to improve to win this.

Form: 2128-

Model¹⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: R Hannon| OR: 92

3/1

Winner at Doncaster last year on debut and placed in Listed company in France next time. Disappointing at a similar level twice since but she may be capable of better this year and she's sure to appreciate the drop in class here.

Form: 1280-

(4)

Dance Me¹¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S Kirk| OR: 73| BF

8/1

Still a maiden and well beaten in Class 4 company when last seen. Likely to struggle against these three rivals in much deeper company.

Form: 3423-

Forecasts

Dathanna (10/11), Model (3/1), Crown Vallary (4/1), Dance Me (8/1)

Model is sure to appreciate the drop in class having campaign at pattern level in her last three starts but preference is for DATHANNA. While she has to concede weight to all her rivals, she's an exciting prospect on an upward curve and connections runners are always worthy of respect around here. Any market support for Crown Vallary is worth noting but she probably needs to have improved over the winter to have a say in this.
