Eternal Sun³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Gabriele Malune⁽³⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 77| D

14/1

Has won twice over this trip on the AW but ran flat last month on the Fibresand at Southwell. Needs to bounce back here on belated turf debut off top weight.

Form: 81-3425

Justice Lady^h⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 75| D

6/1

Quirky mare who needs everything to fall right in her races. Well held at Chepstow last time and has a bit to prove on the back of that. Positive jockey booking and dangerous to dismiss if things fall her way.

Form: 7552-66

(3)

Our Little Pony²²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Faye McManoman⁽⁵⁾| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 74| CD

12/1

Won over C&D off a 5lb lower mark back in September. Struggled on only subsequent start and hasn't been seen since. Entitled to need this run.

Mythical Spirit³⁰⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 72| D

4/1

Had a wonderful time of things last year winning three times and running well on several other occasions. Yard no stranger to getting one ready after a break and every chance she will remain on an upward curve.

Form: 211221-

Mininggold^p¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Paula Muir⁽⁵⁾| T: M Dods| OR: 72| BF| D

16/1

Has an excellent record on the Fibresand at Southwell but clearly not as good on turf. Well held when sent off favourite at Beverley last time and probably vulnerable once more.

Gold Stone⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 70| D

7/1

Both wins have come over this trip so it is a positive that she drops back to it here having been soundly beaten over 6f here last time. Only 1lb higher than for her last win so not without claims if putting best foot forward.

Form: 01-7437

Peggy's Angel^h¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Sean Davis⁽⁵⁾| T: Stef Keniry| OR: 69

20/1

Well handicapped filly that bounced back to form with a close second at Doncaster last time. Nudged up 2lb for not winning but bigger concern is the drop back in trip to 5f.

Form: 8-25802

Dandy's Beano^h1¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 67| D

4/1

Struggling for form of late but mark is slipping as a result. Hood goes on first time and you can make a solid case for him going well if that perks him up a little here.

Form: 5455-47

(5)

Honey Gg¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: C J MacRedmond⁽⁷⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 66| D

11/2

Absolutely loves the Fibresand at Southwell and has been running with real credit there all winter. Has won on turf so claims once more if able to transfer recent efforts back onto the grass.

Form: 212-122

(8)

Lydiate Lady¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 8-11| J: Jamie Gormley⁽³⁾| T: E J Alston| OR: 65| D

12/1

Knows where the winning line is but was well held on return to action at Southwell (5f, AW) 10 days ago. Should come on for that and a return to the turf is a positive. Claims if bouncing back.

Form: 56554-7

Economic Crisis⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 8-4| J: J P Sullivan| T: A Berry| OR: 58| D

25/1

The wheels have slightly come off of late and form has a very patchy look to it. On the positive side she is tumbling down the weights so a revival wouldn't surprise at some stage.

Form: 666-879

Forecasts

Dandy's Beano (4/1), Mythical Spirit (4/1), Honey Gg (11/2), Justice Lady (6/1), Gold Stone (7/1), Our Little Pony (12/1), Lydiate Lady (12/1), Eternal Sun (14/1), Angel Force (14/1), Kodiac Express (14/1), Mininggold (16/1), Peggy's Angel (20/1), Economic Crisis (25/1)

Mythical Spirit had a wonderful time of things last year and should keep on progressing again this season. Any market support for Dandy's Beano in the first-time hood should be noted. HONEY GG has been in terrific form at Southwell on the Fibresand and she will be a huge player once again if transferring that form back onto turf.
