Dear Miriam¹⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: David Egan| T: M R Channon

7/2

Acclamation filly who cost €50,000 as a yearling and is a half-sister to four winners. Not unsupported and showed some ability on debut at Newbury last backend. Makes AW bow and worth noting.

Form: 7-

Follow A Dream¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: K T O'Neill| T: J & T Gosden

5/4

$625,000 Giant's Causeway half-sister to top-class US performers Destin, Vexatious and Creative Cause. Third on debut at Wolverhampton recently without threatening, should be plenty more to come.

Form: 3

Kvetuschka¹⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: L Morris| T: P W Chapple-Hyam

16/1

Mastercraftsman filly who is a half-sister to three winners. Not fancied and well beaten on November debut and looked physically as though she'll need more time. Returns from a break now.

Form: 0-

Mi Manchi²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Aaron Jones⁽³⁾| T: M Botti

50/1

Promising fifth in a novice event over an extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton when making her debut last month. Didn't get a lot of racing room when it mattered over 1m4f here since and might be better suited by this trip at this stage.

Form: 53

(3)

Sadler's Soul

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A Watson

12/1

An $80,000 yearling, she is a half-sister to 6f-7½f winner Stenographer and the booking of Oisin Murphy on debut suggests she may be ready to put her best foot forward. Betting check mandatory.

Form:

(7)

Samstar

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston

9/1

18,000 gns yearling, Nathaniel filly. Represents the Mark Johnston stable on debut and commands a close look as such, with plenty going for her on pedigree.

Form:

(2)

Spice Of Life¹⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Harry Bentley| T: R M Beckett

10/3

By Sea The Stars out of two-year-old 6f winner, so fits the bill on pedigree, but 35,000 gns a cheap price for one with her breeding and duly well held on debut over a mile at Kempton in November. Early days, back from a break.

Follow A Dream (5/4), Spice Of Life (10/3), Dear Miriam (7/2), Samstar (9/1), Sadler's Soul (12/1), Kvetuschka (16/1), Cherries At Dawn (33/1), Breezing (33/1), Mi Manchi (50/1), Just A Minute (50/1)

FOLLOW A DREAM made a pleasing start to his career at Wolverhampton recently, staying on from the back of the field without looking like winning. He'll have learned plenty from that and the $625,000 can open his account here at the primary expense of Dear Miriam, who was well supported on debut at Kempton in November and should have more to offer upped in distance. Mi Manchi should hold claims over this distance based on debut showing while Sadler's Soul ranks as a newcomer that might have something to offer.
