5/6
Has already won over both 6f and 7f on fast ground this season, the latter at Haydock (beat a shorter-priced stablemate) last time out being her best effort yet. 6lb rise but probably more to come over this longer trip. Claims.

2/1
Has improved with each run and scored here over C&D (good) last time in a novice event. Initial mark suggests that she will need further improvement to follow-up, but that could be on the cards.

Drops 2lb going into this, after finishing over 3L in arrears at Haydock (7f, good to firm) last time. Step up in trip looks positive, but others look to have more compelling cases.

40/1
Made the frame in a Catterick seller (7f, good to firm) last month, but nothing he has shown so far suggests that he is about to break his duck from 4lb 'wrong' here.

Forecasts

Iconic Choice (5/6), Mrs Hoo (2/1), Sword Of Gold (4/1), The Fluter (40/1)

Verdict

With respect to Sword Of Gold, who is not totally written off, but looks the Richard Fahey yard's second string, this is more likely to concern Iconic Choice and his apparent first string MRS HOO. The last-named gets the vote on her nursery debut, as she looks to be improving and receives 5lb from the top weight.
  1. Mrs Hoo
  2. Iconic Choice
  3. Sword Of Gold
