150/1
Unraced first foal out of a maiden 5f-7f dam (Old Peg); highly unlikely to prove competitive on debut in concession of weight to each and every one of her younger rivals.
Dream Ahead filly who is yet to finish in front of a single rival in three starts to date (5f-6f), including at odds of 33/1 on turf debut at this track in May.

3/1
Has shown all of her best form on turf; beating all bar the odds-on favourite on her return from a break in a Bath fillies' handicap last week (5.5f, firm); also declared to race at Bath on Wednesday (4.30pm).
$320,000 yearling and a half-sister to five winners including Requinto (5f Group 2); green on debut at Kempton in October 2017, but much more on her game from the outset when leading (weakened) on turf debut at Windsor (6f); sets the benchmark.

10/1
Tough to ascertain her optimum trip and remains a maiden after seven starts (5f-7f); her best effort was probably when finishing third over C&D in June (beaten 3¼L), but she has hardly taken positive steps since; opposed.

25/1
Sister to the 6f winner Black Isle Boy, and a half-sister to a number of winners including Dickies Lad (6f); should fare better for the experience gained on debut at Chelmsford (7f), but equally didn't appear to be a winner in waiting.

Verdict

L'EXPLORA has obviously required plenty of time in order to develop and mature, and whilst it's highly unlikely that she'll ever live up to her $320,000 yearling price tag, this race represents a golden opportunity to get a valuable first win under her belt. She showed plenty of pace when runner-up at Windsor (6f) earlier this month, so with the ground continuing to ride on the quick side, her jockey Ed Greatrex is expected to seek to try and make all against a fairly moderate looking set of rivals.
