Sweet Celebration⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Botti| OR: 72

9/1

Showed a similar level of form in her first two AW starts before nice improvement when second of Nottingham on turf debut. Ran on as though this step up in trip will only help and looks on a very competitive opening handicap mark.

Form: 552

Fearlessly¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Varian| OR: 71| BF

5/4

Promise in all three starts over a mile last year, while racing to a similar level. However improved when upped to 1m3.5f on handicap debut, without quite seeing out the trip and not getting the clearest of runs. This distance now looks ideal.

Form: 533-3

Poetic Era⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: D M Simcock| OR: 67

3/1

Daughter of Poet's Voice has shown promise in all her three starts without progressing from her debut at Newmarket. Up in distance for handicap debut and needs to get back to form of debut off this opening mark.

Form: 4-63

Eve Harrington¹⁶⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 67| BF

4/1

Expensive US bred filly has raced to a similar standard in all three runs over 7f. Now takes a big step up in distance on handicap debut and a likely big improver for this stable. May improve past these rivals.

Form: 4-12

Minnelli⁵⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Rob Hornby| T: P J McBride| OR: 66

16/1

Off the mark at the third time of asking in a fairly moderate 7f maiden auction fillies' stakes at Wolverhampton in September. Well below that when well tried at Newmarket on handicap debut in May and much more needed.

Form: 641-7

Colonelle¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J Quinn| T: E F Vaughan| OR: 62

16/1

Lemon Drop Kid filly showed some improvement in maidens first to second start but struggled on the AW last time. First try beyond 7f and needs to improve for it off this opening handicap mark.

Form: 037

Forecasts

Fearlessly (5/4), Poetic Era (3/1), Eve Harrington (4/1), Sweet Celebration (9/1), Minnelli (16/1), Colonelle (16/1)

EVE HARRINGTON is a fascinating contender up in distance on handicap debut after showing a good attitude in her early starts. Fearlessly is a clear danger with this drop in distance looking spot on. Sweet Celebration is on a feasible mark on her handicap debut and is another to consider in a tight contest.
