Gallovie²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson

4/6

Kyllachy filly ran well on debut when second of 16 at Newbury. She led until late on in a most promising racecourse bow. Third came out and won earlier in the week so form solid and chance here clear-cut.

Form: 2

(1)

Antonia Clara¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Fran Berry| T: S C Williams| OR: 73

11/2

Ran best race to date latest when beaten just ½L stepped back to 5f at Nottingham. Should handle return to 6f and seems to be progressing so expected to be in the thick of things at the business end.

Form: 972

(2)

Emerald Approach

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox

10/1

Newcomer by New Approach is sister to a 6f-1m3f winner including at two and at Listed level and half-sister to six more winners. Trainer not prolific with two-year olds so probably best watched for now.

Form:

(5)

Loving Life

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Adam J McNamara⁽³⁾| T: J A Osborne

16/1

€24,000 newcomer by Society Rock is a half-sister to three winners including two juveniles. Trainer one from 15 with two-year-olds this term so probably come on for the run.

Form:

(9)

Rita's Folly³⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Ryan Tate| T: A Carson

14/1

Beaten 5L into third at Goodwood on debut and same margin behind leading two-year-old Dark Vision at Yarmouth next time. Bumped into decent horses in both races to date so chance here in a race unlikely to be as strong.

Form: 34

(8)

Diva Bella

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Tom Marquand| T: M P Tregoning

33/1

18,000gns yearling by Helmet is a half-sister to a 1m winner at two. Bred to want a bit further and trainer has few two-year-olds (this just his second runner this season). May need time

Form:

(3)

Powerage^b¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Harry Burns⁽⁷⁾| T: J Hughes

100/1

Yet to beat a rival in two starts so far at Lingfield and Chepstow latest where blinker made little difference. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 95

(6)

Chains Of Love⁴³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: B A Curtis| T: K R Burke| D

4/1

Won an 18-runner York seller on debut before finishing third of six in a Doncaster novice. Probably needs to improve but will have support as the only previous winner in the field.

Form: 13

(7)

Heidiava²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: George Wood| T: J Hughes

80/1

Filly by Captain Gerrard played up in the stalls on debut at Lingfield before racing keenly on the outer until she tired badly eventually being beaten some 15½L into seventh of eight. Hard to fancy.

Form: 7

Forecasts

Gallovie (4/6), Chains Of Love (4/1), Antonia Clara (11/2), Emerald Approach (10/1), Rita's Folly (14/1), Loving Life (16/1), Diva Bella (33/1), Heidiava (80/1), Powerage (100/1)

The form of GALLOVIE's second on debut at Newbury received a boost when the third won comfortably at the same course earlier this week and Archie Watson's two-year-old appears to have a nice opportunity to do the same here. The biggest threat may come form Chains Of Love who won a valuable York seller on debut. Rita's Folly bumped into a Listed placed horse on debut and a Group Two winner next time up so her form is better than the bare figures and this filly is expected to go well.
