200/1

Well beaten in two starts so far including on stable and seasonal debut at Doncaster (1m4f, good-to-firm) earlier this month. Probably best watched at present.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: George Wood| T: J R Fanshawe| D

6/4

Impressive 3½L winner of a 1m2f novice event at Doncaster (good) when making her debut last month. Penalised for that success and is one for the shortlist in this contest.

Form: 1

Break The Rules¹³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: E J Walsh| T: Martin Smith

40/1

Left debut running well behind when victorious in a four runner 1m4f novice event on the AW at Lingfield in March. Given a break since and likely to find this tougher under a penalty.

Form: 0-1

Alemagna²⁷⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: S Donohoe| T: D M Simcock

8/1

Promising effort in finishing 3L fourth in a maiden over an extended 1m on soft ground here when debuting last October. Worth a check in the market stepping up in trip on seasonal debut.

Form: 4-

Expressionism

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J Mitchell| T: C Appleby

9/2

Unraced Galileo filly purchased for 575,000 gns as a yearling in October 2017. Half-sister to a couple of winners and is one to note for leading connections on racecourse debut.

Hazaranda⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Jason Watson| T: Sir Michael Stoute

9/2

Good effort in finishing 4L fifth in a 1m2f novice race at Salisbury (good-to-firm) on debut in May. Given a break since and is likely to have improved for the experience.

Form: 5

Midnights' Gift

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: David Probert| T: A King

33/1

Unraced Midnight Legend filly and related to a number of winning hurdlers. Likely to prove better over further in time.

Ojooba²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Dane O'Neill| T: Owen Burrows

4/1

Good 2L third in a 7f maiden at Newmarket (good-to-firm) when making her debut in April. Decent fifth over 1m at the same venue subsequently and is interesting stepping up in trip.

Form: 35

Sweet Promise (6/4), Ojooba (4/1), Expressionism (9/2), Hazaranda (9/2), Alemagna (8/1), Midnights' Gift (33/1), Break The Rules (40/1), I Think So (200/1)

SWEET PROMISE impressed in winning on debut last month and she can defy a penalty to remain unbeaten by taking this fillies novice contest. Expressionism was an expensive yearling purchase and representing top connections she can finish runner-up on her belated debut while third place can go to Alemagna who ran well here on her sole start last year.
