Raskolnikov³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Bentley| T: R M Beckett

8/1

Fair form in two starts to date including when 4L fifth over 5f at Bath (good) last time out. Interesting runner on this occasion.

Form: 45

Revich¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: T P Queally| T: R Spencer

9/2

Stepped up markedly on debut when finishing runner-up over 6f at Chelmsford last time out. Return to this trip not certain to suit.

Form: 93

Tarrzan²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Joey Haynes| T: J Gallagher| D

25/1

Placed at Dundalk for Willie McCreery and was the winner of a selling race at Redcar (5f, good-to-firm) on sole start for his previous yard. This looks weaker than the novice event he contested last time.

Form: 316

Thegreatestshowman¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D C Costello| T: Miss A Murphy| BF

4/1

Finished third over 5f at Newbury (good-to-soft) on debut in April but very disappointing when only finishing fourth of five at Pontefract (6f, good) subsequently. Return to this trip should suit.

Form: 34

All Back To Mine⁴⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: J F Egan| T: J Tuite

25/1

Never involved when making her debut on heavy ground at Salisbury over this trip at the end of April. Probably best watched at present.

Form: 0

Barbara Hepworth¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: S De Sousa| T: G & J Moore

15/8

Has run well on both starts so far most recently when third at Goodwood (6f, good) recently. Return to this trip unlikely to inconvenience too much.

Form: 53

Kadiz^h¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes

4/1

Finished runner-up on two of her three starts to date including over 5f at Windsor (good-to-firm) when wearing a hood (retained) for the first time last time out. One for the shortlist once more.

Form: 262

Rainbow Girl

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon

11/1

Unraced daughter of Kodiac purchased for £58,000 at the breeze-up sales two months ago. Represents a leading yard and is an interesting runner on debut.

Forecasts

Barbara Hepworth (15/8), Thegreatestshowman (4/1), Kadiz (4/1), Revich (9/2), Raskolnikov (8/1), Rainbow Girl (11/1), All Back To Mine (25/1), Tarrzan (25/1)

KADIZ can get off the mark at the fourth time of asking by taking this novice stakes. Richard Hughes filly has run well on the forecast good-to-firm ground in the past and can see off Thegreatestshowman who should appreciate this drop in trip while Revich, placed on the AW last time out is taken to claim third.
