Cheap purchase who as been well down the field on both starts. Up in trip and down in grade.

Frozen Bere^b1⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: T E Whelan| T: George Baker| OR: 60

5/1

Best effort came on the AW here in February over 1m. Well beaten since and soon in trouble on last two outings. Blinkers now applied.

Ventura Magic^p⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S De Sousa| T: R Hannon| OR: 60

10/11

Drops in grade and the jockey booking is noteworthy. Excuses for his two recent tries at this trip and this looks a good opportunity.

Form: 78-4850

Ava The Braver^t¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson

10/1

Nayef filly out of a dam who won over this trip on the Flat. Green and soon tailed off on debut. Swift drop in class is not a good sign.

De Beau Tant^p1²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: George Wood⁽³⁾| T: H Main

25/1

Delegator filly has hardly beaten a rival so far having gone off at lengthy odds. Up in trip, down in grade and different headgear fitted.

Form: 90

Pollyissimo^b1,t1²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: J P Spencer| T: R Hughes| OR: 59

9/4

Best effort came here in April but she reverted to her previous modest level last time. Dropped in class and trainer has opted for a headgear overhaul.

Form: 700-67

Tagus²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: K T O'Neill| T: J J Bridger| OR: 29

66/1

Tailed off last on every start. In more realistic company now, but would face an easier task in a handicap.

Form: 000

Thama^b,t¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: A Fresu| T: Mrs I G-Leveque| OR: 48

25/1

Has not shown much so far and being by smart sprinter Finjaan there have to be doubts she will stay this far.

Form: 8-70980

Forecasts

Ventura Magic (10/11), Pollyissimo (9/4), Breakfast (3/1), Masters Apprentice (9/2), Frozen Bere (5/1), Ava The Braver (10/1), Thama (25/1), De Beau Tant (25/1), Pretty Pearl (25/1), College King (66/1), Tagus (66/1)

None of these have consistently shown enough to place your faith in. VENTURA MAGIC earns the vote purely on a drop in class and the trainer/jockey combination. Breakfast can be headstrong and carries a stamina doubt. Pollyissimo's best performance came here and blinkers may produce enough improvement to see her give a good account.
