11/4
Showed ability on both starts at two (hooded both times), going close at Lingfield (7f, AW) on debut, before winning at Yarmouth (6f, heavy). Has to concede weight as a result of the latter, but looks sure to be a contender again.

50-1 on debut last October and raced keenly before being just over 5L seventh of 11. Should benefit for that experience and some more time, but needs plenty of improvement to win on her reappearance.

4/5
Produced two similar efforts last season in being placed at both Haydock (6f, soft) and Yarmouth (6f, good to firm). The form of the latter race does not look rock solid, but the stable is going well and she is entitled to enter calculations.

£5,000 yearling; seventh foal; half-sister to two winners over sprint trips, out of a 5f winner. Stable 12% with 2yos over five seasons, but this filly will have to be pretty good to see off this field on debut.

First foal of a German 7f (Listed) and 1m winning half-sister to winners up to 1m. Interesting to see what the market makes of her debut chance, but might just be one to watch first time out.

€30,000 2yo; third foal; half-sister to 5f-7f AW winner Sepahi, out of 1m AW 2yo winner. Check the market for clues, though trainer has had few juvenile debutantes to date.

33-1 and well held on debut at Kempton (6f, AW) last week. In good hands and is likely to improve on that modest first effort, but will surely have to wait for other days.

Nibbled at in the market when 16-1 on debut at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in March, where she was 6¼L sixth under a hands and heels ride. Can improve on that, but needs a significant amount of that to figure.

22/1
The most experienced in the field and went close to winning at Goodwood (6f, good) last August, before stopping quickly when last on soft ground at Haydock a month later. Should be very competitive assuming all is again well.
£8,000 2yo; second foal; half-sister to 6f-7f winner Quiet Waters, out of an unraced half-sister to 1m Group 2 winner Lovelace. Stable back among the winners, but this filly makes less appeal than several in this field on debut.

Forecasts

Esprit Rose (4/5), Donnybrook (11/4), Electric Mistress (4/1), Fromnowon (5/1), Able Grace (10/1), Marietty (12/1), Shecandoo (18/1), Strawberry Hind (22/1), Ginniano (25/1), Far From A Ruby (50/1), Kyllinga (66/1), Trixie Waterbury (66/1)

Verdict

This doesn't look the strongest of contest on paper and DONNYBROOK may be capable of sufficient improvement to defy a penalty and back up her win from last autumn. Esprit Rose, Electric Mistress and Fromnowon are perhaps the others likely to give her most to do, while Strawberry Hind is not dismissed.
  1. Donnybrook
