Gold Arrow

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Edward Greatrex| T: A Watson

5/4

Daughter of Havana Gold who has plenty of speed in her pedigree. Respected for stable in very good form and worth a check in the market.

Gold At Midnight

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: David Probert| T: Sir Michael Stoute

10/1

Likely to need further in time but represents a leading stable on debut and worth noting if there is significant support.

Form:

(3)

Inaugurate

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: T Hamilton| T: R A Fahey

5/2

Daughter of Garswood who will appreciate a little bit further with experience but represents a stable well capable of readying a smart newcomer and market support would be significant.

Medoras Childe¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: B A Curtis| T: H Main

50/1

By Nayef out of a modest 7f/1m winner. Not fancied and well beaten on debut and remains best watched at present.

One Kiss¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: H Crouch| T: P D Evans| OR: 67

16/1

Hasn't progressed since debut but ran into a smart sort last time after rearing in stalls. Needs to find improvement.

Pont Vert²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: M Dwyer| T: Eve Johnson Houghton

12/1

Avonbridge filly who cost £12,000 as a yearling and showed promise on debut but failed to build on that on her second start, Others preferred.

Form: 56

Schnapps²³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe

13/2

Swiss Spirit filly purchased for 12,000 gns at the sales last October and should on breeding need further. However outran his odds on debut when travelling strongly over this trip and can go well again.

Form: 3

Waltzing Belle²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Aled Beech⁽⁷⁾| T: C Fellowes

33/1

Sir Prancealot filly, cost 11,000 gns as a foal. Long odds and failed to beat a rival home on debut. Remains best watched.

Forecasts

Gold Arrow (5/4), Inaugurate (5/2), Beryl The Petal (7/2), Schnapps (13/2), Gold At Midnight (10/1), Pont Vert (12/1), One Kiss (16/1), Waltzing Belle (33/1), Medoras Childe (50/1)

Beryl The Petal was unlucky last time and holds an obvious opportunity in an open looking race if taking her chance. Debutantes Gold Arrow, Gold At Midnight and Inaugurate all have to be respected particularly if attracting market support but it may me worth taking a chance that SCHNAPPS will be underrated in the betting following a highly promising debut.
