Meringue³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-10| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| D

1/1

Dual 1m AW winner (but penalised accordingly); some substance to her form with her Kempton debut success franked by the third placed Never Do Nothing (has won twice since); solid chance.

Form: 11

(1)

Euro No More¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: G Lee| T: K Dalgleish

15/2

Daughter of Kodiac; cost 65,000gns as a yearling; switched to the AW after finishing a keeping on fifth of nine to Guildhall (stablemate second) at Ayr (7f heavy).

(5)

Well Funded¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Cam Hardie| T: J D Bethell

20/1

Camelot filly (€20,000 yearling); slowly away and never threatened when finishing eighth of 12 to Universal Order over C&D in September.

Form: 8

(2)

Mulhima²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: A Fresu| T: M Botti

4/1

£14,000 juvenile; dam a Group-placed 5f AW 2yo winner; nearest at the finish when 3½L third to Ideological in a 1m Kempton fillies' novice auction stakes last month; contender.

Form: 33

(7)

Northern Lyte²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: Rowan Scott⁽³⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 70

6/1

AW debut; Sir Percy filly who has finished runner-up in a couple of fairly modest races at Redcar (7f) and Beverley (7½f); no reason as to why this extra yardage shouldn't suit.

Form: 282

(3)

Arms Of The Angel

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston

10/1

€10,000 yearling; third foal; half-sister to a couple of winners including one-time stablemate Golden Jeffrey (2m); market informative.

Form:

(6)

Just A Rumour⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: L Morris| T: I Jardine

66/1

AW debut; half-sister to a couple of AW winners including the Fibresand scorer Red Tide (6f); makes very limited appeal based upon what she's shown so far on turf (5f-6f).

Form: 78

Forecasts

Meringue (1/1), Mulhima (4/1), Northern Lyte (6/1), Euro No More (15/2), Arms Of The Angel (10/1), Well Funded (20/1), Just A Rumour (66/1)

Maintaining her unbeaten record won't be easy for MERINGUE under a double penalty, but in the context of this race, there's some substance to her form and she should have enough in the locker to see off these six rivals. The likeliest danger is the twice-raced Mulhima who took another positive step forward when finishing a keeping on third to Ideological at Kempton (1m) three weeks ago.
