Off time: 15:45 | Winning time: 3m 13.35s

Avorisk Et Perils

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore

6/1

French-bred filly who fetched €14,000 this year. Half-sister won a bumper, so worth a market check on debut for stable with a good record at this track.

Form:

Ballymilan

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: N D Fehily| T: N P Mulholland

10/1

MIlan filly from the family of a winning pointer. Looks a chaser in the making on paper, but is worth noting in the betting with a top jockey on board.

Form:

Devious Dicks Dame^h²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Page Fuller⁽³⁾| T: Miss Z C Davison

66/1

Daughter of Dick Turpin (high- class in the UK and a Group 1 winner in Italy) out of a half-sister to 2m winner Waterwing. Well behind when 100-1 on debut at Warwick and needs to find plenty.

Form: 0

Duchess Of Bronte⁷⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Daniel Sansom⁽⁵⁾| T: B R Millman

16/1

Mount Nelson filly who is related to plenty of winners. Beaten a long way on debut at Huntingdon but started 7-1 that day and may be capable of better.

Form: 7

Eyes Right²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Wayne Hutchinson| T: A King| BF

5/1

Passing Glance filly whose dam was useful in bumpers and over hurdles for this stable. Needed the experience when 11th of 15 on debut at Warwick and should do better this time.

Form: 0

Global Harmony

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

7/2

Daughter of Flemensfirth whose dam was useful over hurdles and fences. Appealing pedigree and trainer/jockey combination remains in fine form.

Form:

Hoot At Midnight

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: J J Burke| T: C E Longsdon

12/1

Midnight Legend filly from the family of a winning pointer. Worth a check in the betting as she makes her debut.

Form:

Into The Mist

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: James Davies| T: Miss J S Davis

33/1

Daughter of Black Sam Bellamy who cost only £1,500 this year, but is a half-sister to a winning hurdler. Best watched on racecourse bow.

Form:

Parisian Affair²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Bryony Frost| T: N B King

9/1

Champs Elysees filly who is a sister to a winning hurdler. Not disgraced in mid-division on debut at Warwick and may do better with that run under her belt.

Form: 7

Sparky Valentine

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Lizzie Kelly⁽³⁾| T: Mrs J Williams

4/1

Kapgarde filly who cost €11,000 as a yearling and is a half-sister to five winners including the fairly useful Qualando. Worth a market check on debut.

Form:

Tops No²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Brendan Powell| T: W R Muir

14/1

Daughter of Mount Nelson who was a cheap purchase as a foal. More speed than stamina in pedigree, but was not disgraced on her debut at Warwick and may progress.

Form: 6

Who What When

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Joshua Moore| T: M McGrath

40/1

Champs Elysees filly who was snapped up for 1,500 gns as a foal and is a half-sister to a 1m2f winner. Watching brief advised as she makes her debut.

Form:

Non-Runners

Little Lady Lu

Weight: 10-12| Age: 3

T: J Nash J: Aidan Coleman

Forecasts

Global Harmony (7/2), Sparky Valentine (4/1), Eyes Right (5/1), Avorisk Et Perils (6/1), Little Lady Lu (13/2), Parisian Affair (9/1), Ballymilan (10/1), Hoot At Midnight (12/1), Tops No (14/1), Duchess Of Bronte (16/1), Into The Mist (33/1), Who What When (40/1), Devious Dicks Dame (66/1)

A weak-looking bumper for this track and it may pay to side with one of the debutants. Irish challenger LITTLE LADY LU has an appealing pedigree and may well make the journey worthwhile for connections. Avorisk Et Peril and Global Harmony are other interesting newcomers, while Duchess Of Bronte, Eyes Right, Parisian Affair and Tops No may step up on their debut displays.
