Forecasts

No Lippy (2/1), Glorious Charmer (11/4), Steely Spirit (3/1), World Order (9/2), Bouncin Back (14/1), Seafaring Girl (20/1)

STEELY SPIRIT can take this two-year-old maiden contest for debutants with the Invincible Spirit colt Steely Spirit. The trainer got off the mark with his juveniles at Thirsk recently and his charge can get the better of No Lippy who is a half-sister to a useful sprinter. World Order is another bred to be a sprinter and he can claim take third.
