Belisa²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: G Lee| T: I Furtado| OR: 87| CD

11/4

Winner of four of her last six races dating back to June last year. Came home clear of her 12 rivals when winning over C&D a month ago and looks likely to prove hard to beat despite an 8lb rise in the weights.

Form: 121-141

Frown³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: K Stott| T: R M Beckett| OR: 82| C

11/4

In good form since switching to handicaps and broke her maiden over 1m2f here last time out. Placed over an extended 1m3f prior to that. Likely to race prominently and is one to note stepping up in distance.

Form: 727231

Stoney Broke^h1⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 82| CD

5/2

Finished second in this race a year ago. Pleasing second on her seasonal debut in a 1m2f contest at Lingfield (good) in May. Disappointed here subsequently and step back up in trip is in her favour. Wears a hood for the first time.

Form: 5235-25

17/2

Ripon maiden winner over 1m4f last August. Beaten 6L into third at Chelmsford in a 1m2f handicap on debut for this yard earlier this month and likely to have improved for that effort.

Form: 25-3553

Misscarlett²⁷⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: Connor Beasley| T: P A Kirby| OR: 72

16/1

Successful in a soft ground maiden at Pontefract over 1m2f last September. Well held on handicap debut the following month and debuts for a new yard following an absence.

Forecasts

Stoney Broke (5/2), Frown (11/4), Belisa (11/4), Giveaway Glance (13/2), Donnachies Girl (7/1), Tarte Tropezienne (17/2), Misscarlett (16/1), Savannah Moon (25/1)

BELISA comes into this race in good form and she is taken to record a third win in three starts this term by defying top weight in what looks a competitive fillies contest. Frown has shaped as if this step up in trip will suit and she can take second having won over shorter on her most recent appearance while third can go to Stoney Broke who was narrowly beaten in this contest 12 months ago.
