JW 4x4 Northallerton Novice Stakes

Off time: 19:57 | Winning time: 1m 44.41s

(9)

Myrmidons⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: A Mullen| T: M Dods

10/1

Won at Redcar on his sole start as a juvenile but a touch below that on last month's reappearance when struggling to get involved. Needs to step up on that but easier ground may suit.

Form: 1-4

(8)

Bea Ryan²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: D Nolan| T: D Carroll

18/1

Showed speed and ability over 7f here on debut last year but following over a year off she was beaten quickly at Redcar last month. Stable in form but improvement needed.

Form: 4-8

(5)

Foxy Eloise

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Seamus Cronin⁽⁵⁾| T: R Brisland

66/1

Daughter of Foxwedge has plenty of speed on dam's side. Probably best watched on belated debut but worth noting stable does particularly well with four-year-olds.

Form:

(10)

Greek Hero¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: D Tudhope| T: D Carroll

10/1

Gelded son of Champs Elysees fetched 14,000 gns as a foal and €68,000 as a yearling. Stable in form and left debut behind when fourth at Carlisle last month, however plenty more needed.

Form: 74

(13)

Philip's Wish^h1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K Stott| T: K Dalgleish

50/1

15,000 gns purchase out of an unraced sister to Italian 1m2f Group 1 winner Quetena and smart 1m winner Sharja Bridge. Tailed off on May's Carlise debut and best watched for now.

Form: 0

(2)

Spiritual Command

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods

20/1

Son of War Command gelded ahead of debut. Bred to be effective at this distance and stable among the winners so worth a precautionary check in the betting.

Form:

(6)

Ambersand³¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey

6/1

Daughter of Footstepsinthesand cost €50,000 as a yearling; a half-sister to winners Masteroftherolls and Wyldfire. Never settled and hung on last year's York debut and unseen since. Market support would be interesting but otherwise best watched.

Form: 6-

(12)

At Peace¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn

14/1

Australia filly out of an unraced mare who is a half-sister to Toronado. Originally cost 75,000 gns as a yearling but changed hands last autumn for 8,000 gns. Struggled to get involved on last month's debut and others preferred.

Form: 6

(3)

Graciarose

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: R Ffrench| T: Miss Tracy Waggott

80/1

Daughter of Piccolo and a third foal; half-sister to 6f winner Questo. Stable has had just two Flat winners this season and likely best watched on debut.

Form:

(7)

Little Miss Muffin

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Cam Hardie| T: S England

100/1

Daughter of Doncaster Rover out of a Kyllachy mare who was a winner as a juvenile. Stable doesn't have many Flat runners and this looks a tough task on debut.

Form:

(11)

Pamper²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: P J McDonald| T: J R Fanshawe

5/6

Lethal Force filly out of a 1m-1m2f winning dam. Well held third on last year's Newmarket debut but improved significantly when a much closer third at Beverley on reappearance. Extra half furlong should only help and rates the one to beat.

Form: 3-3

Rule 4

Rule 4 applies to all bets - deduction 10p in the pound

Forecasts

Pamper (5/6), Ambersand (6/1), International Guy (7/1), Greek Hero (10/1), Myrmidons (10/1), At Peace (14/1), Ningaloo (14/1), Bea Ryan (18/1), Spiritual Command (20/1), Philip's Wish (50/1), Foxy Eloise (66/1), Graciarose (80/1), Little Miss Muffin (100/1)

PAMPER sets the standard of those with previous form, will be suited by the extra test of stamina after keeping on well over shorter and represents a stable in very good form. International Guy also progressed nicely from first to second start and is the obvious danger while rain may bring Myrmidons into the argument.
