Djibouti

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

25/1

Unraced Dark Angel filly purchased for £39,000 at the breeze-up sales in April. Half-sister to winner Jasi and an interesting runner on her racecourse debut.

Gold Arrow²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A Watson

9/2

Finished runner-up over 6f at Leicester (good-to-firm) on debut a month ago. Disappointed on the AW since and a leading contender on her return to turf.

Form: 24

I'm Freezing²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R Havlin| T: E Walker

50/1

Well held in two outings over 6f so far. Likely to be of more interest once eligible for handicap events.

Jojo

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Nicola Currie⁽³⁾| T: J Hughes

66/1

Unraced daughter of Battle Of Marengo cost connections £15,000 as a yearling. Related to a number of winners but probably best watched on debut.

Keyhaven²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: George Wood| T: J R Fanshawe

33/1

Struggled in two starts over 6f on good-to-firm ground at Nottingham so far. Needs to improve if she's to take this contest.

Form: 67

Lady Scatterley³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Rossa Ryan⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon

7/1

Not beaten far when fifth in a competitive 6f novice contest at Newbury (good-to-firm) on debut in July. Fair sixth over 7f at Newmarket (good-to-firm) subsequently and this looks a weaker contest.

Form: 56

Make A Wish¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R L Moore| T: S & E Crisford

5/6

Good effort in finishing 1L third in a 6f maiden at Nottingham (good) when making her debut a fortnight ago. Repeat of that should see her play a leading role.

Form: 3

Mawahib

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S De Sousa| T: S bin Suroor

3/1

Unraced daughter of New Approach and a full-sister to winner Impulsif. Represents top connections and is a notable runner on debut.

Miss President⁸⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Jim Crowley| T: Sir Michael Stoute

20/1

Well beaten in a 6f novice event at Kempton when making her debut just under two months ago. Represents a top yard and not written off just yet.

Quintana Roo⁶⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Harry Burns⁽⁷⁾| T: J Hughes

100/1

Struggled in two starts in the spring including over an extended 5f at Bath (firm) in June. Absent since and others make more appeal returning from a break.

Forecasts

Make A Wish (5/6), Mawahib (3/1), Gold Arrow (9/2), Lady Scatterley (7/1), A Spirit Of Love (16/1), Miss President (20/1), Djibouti (25/1), Keyhaven (33/1), I'm Freezing (50/1), Jojo (66/1), Quintana Roo (100/1)

MAKE A WISH showed plenty of promise when third on debut and she is taken to get off the mark at the second attempt in what looks a competitive fillies maiden. The selection should appreciate forecast underfoot conditions and looks capable of seeing off Gold Arrow who can put a disappointing AW performance behind her by taking second ahead of the newcomer Mawahib.
