Breathtaking Look¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: A Kirby| T: S C Williams| OR: 88| BF| CD

7/4

Posted a career best when winning over C&D on her penultimate start. Disappointing when favourite here last time, but her profile is largely progressive, and no surprise to see her bounce back.

Form: 151-317

Melodies³⁷¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Rob Hornby| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 88

16/1

Ended short 2018 campaign with an excellent second to Red Tea at Newbury in July. Absence since is an obvious concern, but that form has been well franked since, and she remains unexposed.

Form: 425/412-

Impulsion^p¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 90

8/1

Often highly tried, but ran up to her best when fourth in a Listed race at Carlisle in June. Out of her depth in a Group 3 at York last time, and this is a more realistic assignment.

Form: 4-77240

Dupioni¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: J F Egan| T: Rae Guest| OR: 83

4/1

Progressive since a winning debut aside from facing a stiff task on easy ground here in November. Matched previous effort when third of 11 to California Love in a C&D handicap last time, and claims if rain stays away.

Form: 174-33

(5)

Fabulist¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Harry Bentley| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 82| BF| C

6/4

Improved form when winning over 1m here on penultimate start, and travelled best but found nothing at Ascot last time. Perhaps she will benefit from this drop in trip, and may yet have more to offer.

Form: 5-315

Forecasts

Fabulist (6/4), Breathtaking Look (7/4), Dupioni (4/1), Impulsion (8/1), Melodies (16/1)

MELODIES has been off for just over a year, but her second to subsequent Group 2 winner Red Tea is arguably the standout piece of form on offer, and she is the type to progress again with a clear run at things. Breathtaking Look is better than she showed here last time, and is feared most, with Dupioni also worthy of consideration.
