Lettergold Fillies' Novice Auction Stakes (Plus 10)

Off time: 14:08 | Winning time: 1m 24.85s

(12)

Brazen Safa³⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Cameron Noble⁽³⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 76

7/1

Winner of similar contest at Brighton in April and shaped as if a step up in trip was needed when fourth in 6f Lingfield novice on latest start. Has to improve under a penalty but has place claims if progressing again.

Form: 5134

(7)

Atmospheric²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox| BF

7/2

Put up a similar effort to good debut run when third of seven in Salisbury novice (6f, good to firm). Looked to be crying for this trip that day and is bred to better over 7f and above. On the shortlist.

Form: 33

(10)

Fromnowon⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon

4/1

Overcame greenness and bad luck in running to finish a strong second in 6f Newbury maiden nine days ago. Likely to have won if there was an extra 100 yards so the step up to 7f can only be a positive. Solid claims.

Form: 2

(11)

Incognito⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Callum Shepherd| T: M R Channon

13/2

Well beaten on debut but put in an improved performance to finish fourth in maiden contest over C&D a week ago. More progression is needed and may be vulnerable to other rivals in the field.

Form: 64

Junvieve

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Seamus Cronin⁽⁵⁾| T: R Hannon

25/1

€25,000 yearling. Stallion was a Group 1 winning two-year-old and out of a dam who won over 6f. Half-sister to three winners so merits a market check on debut but looks to be stable's second string on jockey bookings.

Form:

(6)

Gonna Dancealot

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: J F Egan| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam

16/1

€18,000 yearling out of a mare who has produced a 2m novice hurdle winner and 7f winner Pollination. Not the most attractive pedigree on paper and likely to be more of a long-term prospect.

Form:

(2)

Magnificia

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: George Wood| T: E A L Dunlop

50/1

€17,000 yearling purchase. Dam showed little promise on the track up to 1m4f but has produced 6f winner Erich Bloch. However pedigree suggests she will progress over further and others make more appeal.

Mrs Dukesbury¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson

10/1

Didn't progress as hoped from good debut effort when 5L sixth in 7f Epsom maiden at the start of the month. Likely to be better than that in time and hails from a yard who excel with juveniles but the stiff track is a concern.

Form: 26

(8)

Ananya²³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: B Doyle| T: P W Chapple-Hyam

8/1

Outran her 28/1 odds when third in 6f novice contest at this track last month. Form of that race hasn't been tested since and is entitled to progression but yard hasn't had a juvenile winner this season. Can't be discounted.

Form: 3

(5)

Blausee²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Phil Dennis| T: P J McBride| OR: 71

7/1

Significant progression in each start to date, including when narrowly denied in 7f Doncaster novice last month. No reason why she cannot improve again and is a leading contender.

Form: 522

(9)

Wallaby²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: Hayley Turner| T: J G Portman

25/1

Daughter of 2014 Derby winner Australia and wasn't disgraced when fifth of 12 on debut at Lingfield (7f, good). Has a bit to find on ratings with Mrs Dukesbury and will probably be better over longer trips. Opposable.

Form: 5

Forecasts

Atmospheric (7/2), Fromnowon (4/1), Incognito (13/2), Blausee (7/1), Brazen Safa (7/1), Ananya (8/1), Mrs Dukesbury (10/1), Gonna Dancealot (16/1), Tinuviel (16/1), Wallaby (25/1), Junvieve (25/1), Magnificia (50/1)

FROMNOWON took the eye on her debut when she was luckless throughout, which included her rider dropping the whip at a crucial stage, and looks to have the natural progression to step up again for the Richard Hannon yard, whose juveniles look to be coming to hand now. Blausee is entitled to be prominent in the betting but seems to find one too good and is becoming slightly exposed at this level while Atmospheric has shaped well enough in her two starts to date to suggest she will be vying for the places.
