Has been well beaten on her three starts so far, including on her latest run over this extended distance at this track when seventh of eight runners. Hasn't been fancied in the market so far. Needs to improve a lot.

Was seventh of nine on his debut at Yarmouth (6f) last month where he was in contention before weakening inside the last 1f. Will come on for that debut run so he is worth considering, especially if there is support in the betting.
Returned to action for new his new yard 14 days ago where he looked to need the run at Lingfield (6f) when fifth of six runners. Needs to improve on what he has shown on his two racecourse starts so far.

Has twice gone close to breaking his maiden, including on his opening run of the season when second in a 15 runner field at Nottingham (5f). Didn't seem to enjoy cheekpieces at Goodwood (5f) last time so those are off today. Leading contender.

A long way down the field in both of her starts at the back end of last year, including when ninth of 11 at Newmarket (7f). First run for new yard and down in trip. Others are preferred though.

Coach House filly whose dam was a 5f winner for this yard. Difficult to see winning on first racecourse start, however, it will be interesting if there is support behind her in the market.

3/1
Experienced operator now who is still a maiden after 13 races. A lot of her best form has come on turf. She was below her best last time at Leicester (7f) when fourth of five runners. Back down in trip. Each-way claims.

Forecasts

Khafooq (11/10), Haats Off (3/1), George Thomas (4/1), Good Answer (6/1), Final Legacy (20/1), Scarlet Red (22/1), Alyx Vance (25/1)

Verdict

KHAFOOQ should be able to break his maiden here in what looks like a weak content. Although he was disappointing last time at Goodwood, he just didn't settle with cheekpieces on so connections have wisely ditched them today. George Thomas should improve from his opening run so expect much more from him, while Haats Off tends to run well without winning.
