Well held on both starts to date most recently in a 6f novice event at Newcastle in March. Likely to be of more interest once tackling handicap company.

Unraced Lethal Force filly purchased for 60,000 gns as a foal. Dam won over sprint distances and market support would be notable on her first racecourse appearance.

Left debut running well behind when finishing a neck second in a novice event over this trip at Chelmsford earlier this month. One for the shortlist for a stable with a 25% strike-rate (2/8) in recent weeks. Also engaged 12:30 Newmarket Saturday.

Shaped as if a drop in trip would suit when finishing 25L last of 11 in a 1m novice contest at Chelmsford on debut earlier this month. Interesting to see how she fares in this event.

Failed to figure in two starts to date including when 10L eighth over 7f at Lingfield in March. Absent since and others make more appeal on this occasion.

Placed on each of her last two starts including when 5¾L third in a 6f novice contest at Ripon (good-to-soft) in August. One for the shortlist for a top yard on seasonal reappearance.

Well beaten 21L last of nine when contesting a 7f novice race at Chelmsford on debut in January. Never involved that day and others hold more obvious claims in this contest.

Sent off a big price but showed ability in finishing 4¼L fourth in a 6f novice contest over this C&D in early March. Interesting to see if she can replicate that effort in this race.

Performed well when finishing ½L second in a 6f novice race at Kempton on debut in May last year. One for the shortlist on her return from over 12 months off the track.

Represents a top yard and ran well when beaten 6½L into second in a 6f maiden at Pontefract (good) on debut earlier this month. Improvement likely and is of interest on her AW debut.

Forecasts

Rubia Bella (9/4), Silk Lace (7/2), Don't Tell Claire (4/1), Heavens Open (4/1), Courtesy (8/1), Lucky Face (18/1), D'arcy Spice (20/1), Front of Line (28/1), Feisty Gal (33/1), Kylla Looks (100/1), Along Comes Mary (150/1)

Verdict

HEAVENS OPEN has shown good form in her three starts to date and she looks capable of getting off the mark at the fourth time of asking in this fillies' novice event. The selection can get the better of Rubia Bella who showed plenty of ability on her only start at two while third place can go to Silk Lace who is bidding to go one better than when runner-up on debut recently.
  1. Heavens Open
  2. Rubia Bella
  3. Silk Lace
