Execlusive¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Adam J McNamara| T: A Watson| OR: 71| CD

12/1

Failed to figure in two starts since winning over C&D on firm ground last month. Interesting to see how she fares off a mark 3lb higher than for that latest success.

Form: 184150

Airbrush²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Oisin Murphy| T: R Hannon| OR: 69| BF

7/2

Placed twice from four starts including when finishing runner-up over an extended 5f at Brighton (good-to-firm) last time out. Raised 3lb for that effort and is of interest in this contest.

Form: 3752

Aryaaf²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 69

6/4

Improving with racing and ran well to finish 1½L second in a maiden over an extended 5f on good-to-firm going here last time out. Leading contender on handicap debut for a yard with a 31% strike-rate (5/16) in recent weeks.

Form: 442

Call Me Cheers¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: K Shoemark| T: P D Evans| OR: 60

8/1

Registered his first placed effort when finishing ½L second in a 5f AW event at Wolverhampton on handicap debut last time out. Has to defy a 2lb rise if he's to break his maiden on this occasion.

Form: 4602

Prissy Missy¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: David Egan| T: D Loughnane| OR: 57

7/2

Placed twice from six starts most recently when runner-up at Ffos Las (5f, good-to-soft) a fortnight ago. Likely to run well once more.

Form: 855272

(4)

Walton Thorns¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: M Dwyer| T: C Hills| OR: 55

20/1

Finished last on both starts since switched to handicaps including at Wolverhampton (5f) two weeks ago. Others hold stronger claims.

Form: 09590

Forecasts

Aryaaf (6/4), Prissy Missy (7/2), Airbrush (7/2), Call Me Cheers (8/1), Execlusive (12/1), Walton Thorns (20/1)

ARYAAF registered a career best effort last time out and she is taken to get off the mark at the fourth time of asking by making a winning handicap debut in this nursery event. The selection can get the better of Airbrush who hails from a good yard and ran well over further last time out while Prissy Missy who has placed twice in handicap company in recent starts can finish third.
