Hateya²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Cieren Fallon⁽³⁾| T: J R Boyle| OR: 95| D

40/1

Winless since July 2018, she has been highly-tried on occasions. Ran poorly at Epsom (7f) on latest start, but reported to have suffered from post-race cardiac arrhythmia. Best watched.

Form: 3-65460

Separate^b¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 95

33/1

Well held in a handicap on return, and she's been quite highly tried since, finishing fourth of 7 to Al Suhail in a 1m Listed race at Newmarket last time. More required here, but her mark is beginning to slide.

Form: 237-064

(6)

Wasaayef³¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jim Crowley| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 93

9/2

580,000 gns yearling who progressed nicely in three 2-y-o runs, culminating in a neck second of 9 to Queen Daenerys at Newmarket in September. Unexposed, and with that form working out, she is expected to go well on her return/handicap debut.

Form: 212-

(7)

Angel Power³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian| OR: 90| D

9/4

Won a 1m novice at Chelmsford on her return, and improved further when neck second of 9 to Strait of Hormuz on handicap debut at Haydock last time. Should continue to thrive, and shortlisted.

Form: 3-12

(8)

Alabama Whitman^p1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Oisin Murphy| T: R Spencer| OR: 88

40/1

Outran big odds when fourth in the Albany and landed the odds at Carlisle next time. Highly tried since, but hasn't done well enough in handicaps the last twice to make her of serious interest. Cheekpieces tried now.

Form: 4157-04

Secret Return¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 8-12| J: William Carson| T: R Brisland| OR: 79| D

18/1

Back to form when scoring at Bath last time by a neck from Tell William, but she's not the most consistent, and isn't sure to be in the same form in this better contest, for all a 2lb rise isn't harsh in itself.

Form: 8988-71

(10)

I'm Available^t¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Jason Hart| T: S C Williams| OR: 77| D

18/1

Dual 1m winner last season, and has been shaping as if worth another try at this trip having run over shorter this year. Better than result at Kempton last time, finishing with running left, and handicapped to play a part.

Form: 259-656

(3)

Vividly¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: W Buick| T: C Hills| OR: 84| C

15/2

Won her maiden over 7f here last term, and highly tried next time. Showed improved form when fifth of 12 to Manaabit on handicap debut at Ascot on her return, and has claims if building on that.

Form: 319-5

(5)

Tomorrow's Dream¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 84| BF

11/2

Progressive filly who landed second win on handicap debut at Chepstow a month ago. Shaped best when second of 6 to Festive Star in a 1m handicap at Newbury last time, and is a significant player on that showing.

Form: 51-412

(4)

Agent Of Fortune^p¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: R L Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 75| D

50/1

Improved markedly for the switch to current yard, winning seven races over the winter. Mark has suffered in consequence, however, and handicapper seems in charge based on recent AW and turf efforts.

Form: 137078

(12)

Declared Interest¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Harry Bentley| T: R M Beckett| OR: 83| BF| D

13/2

Improved on two promising juvenile starts when scoring on her reappearance at Chelmsford. Not built on that since, though, and no excuses when 5¼L seventh of 12 to Manaabit at Ascot last time.

Form: 32-157

(11)

Queen Of Silca¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: David Egan| T: M R Channon| OR: 77| D

25/1

Completed a hat-trick at Chepstow early this month, and back to form when second of 7 to Sparkling Olly there last time, although easy winner has been beaten since, suggesting that form may not be as strong as it looked.

Form: 411162

Forecasts

Angel Power (9/4), Wasaayef (9/2), Tomorrow's Dream (11/2), Declared Interest (13/2), Vividly (15/2), Secret Return (18/1), I'm Available (18/1), Queen Of Silca (25/1), Separate (33/1), Hateya (40/1), Alabama Whitman (40/1), Agent Of Fortune (50/1)

Wasaayef is shortlisted on her progressive 2-y-o form, and it's unlikely her trainer would bring her here short of peak, while I'm Available has been shaping up well enough over shorter, and will appreciate the return to 1m here, but the vote goes to TOMORROW'S DREAM, who was unlucky not to win at Newbury last time, and remains capable of better.
