8/11
Sets a fair standard after three good runs in novice company; won at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in June and not disgraced when second under a penalty here last month. Up in trip and gives weight to the rest but still looks the one to beat.

Age: 2|  Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: A King
14/1
22,000 gns yearling who is a sister to 1m winner Golden Raven and a half-sister to a couple of winners over further. Her dam, who is a half-sister to Goldikova, won over and extended 1m3f. Yard not noted for first-time out juvenile winners though.

7/4
€15,000 yearling who was slowly away and ran green on debut at Musselburgh (7f, good) at the start of this month. Finished last but wasn't beaten too far that day and obviously open to improvement. The trip will suit on pedigree. Betting can guide.

66/1
Cost just £6,000 but being a half-sister to Group placed sprinter Mirdif, the filly makes some appeal on pedigree. First two starts were poor efforts, though, and, having finished last on both occasions, dramatic improvement is needed this time.

A cheap purchase that is a half-sister to a 6f AW winner; her dam was of modest ability and only placed once from 17 runs. Totally fluffed the start on debut at Newmarket nine days ago and was never in contention as a result. Big improvement needed.

20/1
A Sixties Icon filly who showed improvement from her debut when she stayed on to finish second in a seller on the Tapeta at Wolverhampton earlier this month. That form has been let down since and plenty to prove on debut for a new trainer.

Forecasts

Little Bird (8/11), Um Elnadim (7/4), Her Indoors (14/1), Fair Sabra (14/1), Hiconic (20/1), Loretta Lass (66/1)

Verdict

The step up to a mile shouldn't be too much of a problem for LITTLE BIRD and she looks the safest option in a weak race. Um Elnadim was green on debut but will be a lot wiser this time and can give the selection a hard time if she's learned anything form her introduction earlier this month. Hiconic debuts for a new yard after finishing second in a seller last time and might have more to offer. She makes more appeal than Fair Sabra at this stage.
