Brazen Sheila⁴⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: A Carson

100/1

Left Mick Appleby after her first run, now makes a debut for a new yard having made an uncompromising start to her career over 7f at Chelmsford. Given a wide draw and would need to make plenty of progress from her debut.

Broughton Sunpearl²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Joey Haynes| T: Tom Clover

8/1

Stepped up to 7f for her second start having shown something to work on from her initial out over 6f at Kempton last month. Speedily bred but did run on late last time and should know more this time around.

Form: 3

(8)

Criseyde¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Liam Keniry| T: S Kirk

66/1

Very green and inexperienced on her Kempton debut finishing last of five over 6f (pulled hard), finished well behind. Needs to show a fair amount of improvement to get involved on the evidence of her initial run.

Form: 5

(6)

Disco Fever¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden

6/4

Well bred sort from a powerful stable who made plenty of appeal prior to her Kempton debut where she shaped well when coming fourth from a less than ideal track position. Caught the eye without being given a hard time; sure to improve.

Form: 4

Ever Amber¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman

16/1

Made a marked improvement from her debut at Kempton over 1m when taking third over the same trip here last time. Form remains modest although she did keep on nicely as if getting the hang of things; first try at 7f, looks one for handicaps.

Form: 03

Golden Slumbers¹⁹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: E J Walsh| T: W G M Turner

100/1

Not seen since the summer when she made her debut over 6f here; very much bred for speed rather than stamina so the step up to 7f is puzzling. Has a long absence to overcome, best watched on this occasion.

Form: 0

Marble Bay¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: T P Queally| T: P D Evans

33/1

Two runs over 7f on the AW at Kempton have established that she is only of modest ability although this 1m trip should see her in a better light. Bred to be suited a greater test of stamina than she's so far been given; could take a place.

Form: 75

Mistry Girl

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Toby Eley⁽⁵⁾| T: J R Holt

66/1

One of two newcomers in the field the stable last had a debutante 2yo winner in 2009; half-sister to several winners, dam 6f 2yo winner. Even given her pedigree would be a surprise winner considering her connections record with juveniles.

Must Be An Angel²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: James Doyle| T: S Kirk

2/1

Had a breathing operation prior to her debut over 7f at Kempton and shaped nicely, finishing strongly after getting caught further back than ideal (took third). Went backwards from her debut at Chelmsford (7f) last time; 6f may suit better for now.

Form: 36

(3)

Perfect Outing¹³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox

8/1

Showed enough on her debut to think that she will be able to show more this time around, just lacking some match sharpness first time out at Newbury over 7f. Given time since that first outing this half-sister to four winners should do better.

Form: 4

(7)

Rudaina

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Watson| T: Miss A Murphy

16/1

Yard 1-36 with 2yo newcomers this daughter of Dark Angel was a 65,000 guinea purchase in October 2018. Half-sister to 5f AW winner Madam Devious; dam 6f AW winner, half-sister to five winners up to 1m including Alsindi (7f 2yo Group 3 winner).

Talking About You²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Charles Bishop| T: M R Channon

66/1

Sixties Icon filly who showed very little on her 7f Chelmsford debut finishing well held after being hampered early on; finished last of 10. 50-1 on that occasion she may well be around the same price here; much more needed to trouble the principals.

Form: 0

(13)

Wonderful Effort¹³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: L Morris| T: E F Vaughan

25/1

Given a very considerate introduction when racing well off the pace over 6f at Chelmsford beating only one home but should come on for the experience. Looks one for the longer term although better is expected this time around up to 7f.

Form: 7

(9)

Zenaida⁵⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: K Shoemark| T: E A L Dunlop

20/1

Hooded for her debut she didn't show much more than inexperience over 7f at Kempton finishing well held after never really getting on terms. 100-1 on that occasion the hood is now removed for her second racecourse experience.

Form: 9

Forecasts

Disco Fever (6/4), Must Be An Angel (2/1), Perfect Outing (8/1), Broughton Sunpearl (8/1), Rudaina (16/1), Ever Amber (16/1), Zenaida (20/1), Wonderful Effort (25/1), Marble Bay (33/1), Criseyde (66/1), Talking About You (66/1), Mistry Girl (66/1), Brazen Sheila (100/1), Golden Slumbers (100/1)

John Gosden has won this five times since 2010 which means that DISCO FEVER who finished an eye-catching fourth on her Kempton debut is taken to provide him with another winner in this contest. Perfect Outing who steps onto the AW for the first time looks to be one of the dangers, she was too inexperienced to do herself justice on her Newbury debut but showed enough to make her of interest here. Ever Amber, Wonderful Effort and Broughton Sunpearl are three others that can be expected to enter the equation given their efforts so far.
