11/10

All out to score at Chelmsford before Christmas. Beaten off revised mark since, but had more use made of her that day and interesting to see if she is ridden with more restraint this time.

Indiscretion²¹⁵

C&D winner in this grade last summer off a similar mark. Has been off seven months, but has gone well fresh in the past.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Cameron Noble⁽⁵⁾| T: M Madgwick| OR: 75| D

5/1

Kempton winner for John Gosden who has been more highly tried on both starts for new yard. Will be happier at this level but still looks too high in the weights.

Form: 93813-6

Poor maiden who is making her handicap debut from 11lb out of the weights. Has no conceivable chance in this company.

Forecasts

Yusra (11/10), Delicate Kiss (2/1), Lady Alavesa (9/4), First Link (11/4), Indiscretion (5/1), Margie's Choice (5/1), Ventura Blues (6/1), Suttonwood Sally (50/1)

Yusra and Indiscretion have proven themselves capable in this grade. Both have work to do should LADY ALAVESA or Ventura Blues run to the levels they produced on Monday when third and fourth respectively behind a reliable yardstick in a Wolverhampton class 2 event. Both finished closer than expected from well out of the weights. The selection was 10lb "wrong" but maintained her rate of progress and is weighted to confirm the placings on a track which suits.
