Thriving²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: R Varian

7/4

Started her career well when taking 2nd at Sandown (to a useful sort); capable of better. Soon proved that statement to be true when well backed at Beverley scoring readily over 5f; this will prove harder under a penalty trying (first try at 6f).

Form: 21

Comeonfeeltheforce¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Liam Jones| T: J G Portman

15/2

A cheap purchase at the breeze-ups given that she has a useful pedigree and outran her odds and price on debut at Newbury over 6f (staying-on 3rd). Was behind I'lletyougonow in that contest though and 4lb worse off here; work to do at the weights.

Form: 3

I'lletyougonow¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Charles Bishop| T: M R Channon| BF

1/1

Well supported on her debut (went off favourite) at Newbury last time and finished a highly promising 2nd (Comeonfeeltheforce in 3rd). Looked to handle proceedings well enough (little green) and has scope for improvement; gets 7lb from main rival.

Form: 2

Powerage^b1⁵⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Harry Burns⁽⁷⁾| T: J Hughes

66/1

Showed very little in terms of ability on her debut over 5f at Lingfield when slow away and soon detached from the rest of the field (finished last of 9). Blinkers go on now for the first-time but hard to see her troubling the principals.

Form: 9

(3)

Shaffire¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Finley Marsh⁽⁵⁾| T: J Tuite

8/1

Well held when an 80/1 chance in a Newmarket maiden over 6f although she was staying on late when short of room. Progress likely with that run under her belt but bred to stay a lot further than this and of more interest when tried over 7f plus.

Form: 9

Forecasts

I'lletyougonow (1/1), Thriving (7/4), Comeonfeeltheforce (15/2), Shaffire (8/1), Powerage (66/1)

The supporters of I'LLETYOUGONOW will be looking for recompense here after she was well supported on her debut but could only finish second although it was a highly promising run with Comefeeltheforce behind in third. The Portman filly ran well enough on her debut also but she is 4lb worse off here and will have a task to reverse that Newbury form. Thriving has done nothing wrong in her two runs but has to concede 7lb to all her rivals here and that may prove a task that is just beyond her.
