A consistent mare who transferred her AW form to a good second over the C&D last start. Likes the conditions and should go well.

Goes well here but bit to find with Powerful Dream from their last clash. However reared on leaving the stalls and then got no run, so quite possible she can go closer with that run behind here.

7/4
Has generally looked a better filly on the AW but really caught the eye running on for a late second here over slightly shorter. Distance should now be ideal and a reproduction could easily find a first win on the turf.

13/2
Has decent course form but generally on much easier ground. Recent runs have suggested she needs some further help from the handicapper.

Maiden after eight starts but despite being well fancied on last two runs has continued to disappoint. Stable is in good form but needs to find significant improvement.

Continues to be well beaten at long odds in all her starts and hard to make a case for.

Forecasts

Met By Moonlight (7/4), Powerful Dream (7/2), Coronation Cottage (4/1), Everkyllachy (13/2), Napping (7/1), Sweet Pursuit (10/1), Val's Magic Touch (50/1)

Verdict

Powerful Dream continues to run up to a consistent level of form and should be thereabouts once again in conditions that suit. Coronation Cottage found nothing going right behind her last time but is entitled to go closer. MET BY MOONLIGHT ran a much improved performance on the turf last time that suggested she's finally ready to transfer her AW form to this quicker ground.
  1. Met By Moonlight
  2. Powerful Dream
  3. Coronation Cottage
