Canton Queen

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: T P Queally| T: R Hannon

20/1

110,000gns yearling by Shamardal out of a maiden half-sister to Group-Two winning Lady Of The Desert. Appears stable first string on jockey bookings so one of the likelier newcomers given trainer's 13 per cent strike rate with debutants.

Chartered

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: R M Beckett

5/1

Frankel newcomer is a half-sister to seven winners including two at Group level from 7f-1m4f. Trainer doing well with two-year-old newcomers so this well-bred filly is worth a market check.

Dandhu¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: G Mosse| T: D R C Elsworth

7/1

75,000gns daughter of Dandy Man made one of the most eye-catching debuts of recent weeks over 6f here when she was green and detached before the penny dropped and she fairly flew home for sixth. Huge improvement expected, leading chance.

Form: 6

Delicious¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: J Quinn| T: C Hills

40/1

Olympic Glory filly made her debut over C&D two weeks ago but was never a factor after absolutely walking out eventually beaten 8¼L in last of seven. Should improve on that but will need to take a big step up to be involved.

Form: 7

Glance

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Harry Bentley| T: R M Beckett

10/1

Dansili newcomer closely related to Listed winner over 1m-1m2f winner Regardez and 1m2f winner Sightline. One of two newcomers for the yard (also run Chartered) and worth a comparison in the market.

(16)

Hostess

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: P Cosgrave| T: H Palmer

33/1

75,000gns vendor yearling by Iffraaj is half-sister to three winners including two juveniles. Trainer doing well with two-year-olds and has a few first-time out winners so market support would be interesting.

Ice Gala¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: James Doyle| T: W J Haggas

11/4

Invincible Spirit filly is half-sister to four winners mostly at 1m plus. Made a really promising start over 6f here two weeks ago when finishing best of all for third only beaten ½L. Sure to appreciate further so has to rank a leading contender.

Form: 3

(1)

Imperial Charm

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: S & E Crisford

7/1

Debutant by Dubawi is a half-sister to four winners all of them useful with the most notable Group One winner Ajman Princess. Very attractive middle distance pedigree but trainer's strike rate with two-year-olds suggests a watching brief here.

Form:

(8)

Layaleena

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Dane O'Neill| T: Sir Michael Stoute

9/2

130,000gns yearling newcomer by Sea The Stars out of an unplaced mare from a good 1m-1m2f French family. Trainer's runners always respected although the majority progress from their first run.

Form:

(2)

Melo Pearl²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Louis Steward| T: M H Tompkins

200/1

Paco Boy filly out of a middle distance winning dam made an inauspicious start when slowly away and seventh of eight at Chelmsford over 6f. Will need further in time and trainer very ordinary record with two-year-olds

Form: 7

(13)

Mot Juste

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Yuga Kawada| T: R Varian

33/1

Distorted Humor newcomer is a half-sister to two winners including a 1m two-year-old out of a Group Two winner over 1m4f. Trainer capable with newcomers although generally his debutants need the run so market check merited.

Form:

(5)

Pushmi Pullyu²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: J F Egan| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam

150/1

Bargain buy by Roderic O'Connor was last of 10 beaten some 21L over C&D on debut. Hard to make a case for her here.

Form: 0

Rainbow Spirit

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: E A L Dunlop

100/1

10,000gns vendor foal by Charm Spirit is half-sister to four winners including Listed scorer Navajo Chief. Likely to want further and trainer's two-year-olds tend to need at least one run to find their feet.

Forecasts

Ice Gala (11/4), Layaleena (9/2), Hello Bangkok (9/2), Chartered (5/1), Imperial Charm (7/1), Dandhu (7/1), Glance (10/1), Flighty Almighty (14/1), Canton Queen (20/1), Star Of War (20/1), Hostess (33/1), Mot Juste (33/1), Delicious (40/1), Rainbow Spirit (100/1), Light Of India (100/1), Pushmi Pullyu (150/1), Melo Pearl (200/1)

A couple of these fillies really caught the eye on their respective debuts here over 6f with each looking sure to benefit for the experience and also the extra furlong they get today. Of the pair ICE GALA gets the nod having only gone down by ½L but Dandhu is also expected to make great strides and be involved in the finish. Fillies mile entrant Hello Bangkok also ran an excellent race first time up and she too merits maximum respect.
